LoRaWAN for IoT wireless networks
- [Instructor] LoRa stands for long range and it is a cherb spread spectrum modulation technology for achieving low power in a long range communications standardized by Semtech Corporation. LoRa is therefore considered as a physical layer technology based on the OSI model, and it allows low power IoT end devices to transmit machine data over 10s of kilometers. LoRa devices can operate at a wide range of frequencies, including the unlicensed bands below one gigahertz in order to provide flexible inter-operable and scalable deployments on the global scale. LoRa WAN is a low power WAN specification for battery-powered IoT solutions standardized by LoRa Alliance. LoRa WAN provides a multiple access protocol, and requires a server application to run the OSI upper layer function over a communication connection. It works with LoRa technology to create a long range communication capability. A LoRa WAN-based wireless network has…
