- This video covers the basics of what LoRa and LoRaWAN are and how to use it in your projects including how to set up a gateway and use The Things Network (TTN).
Thank you to Move-X for sponsoring this video, please check out their Cicerone board here: www.move-x.it/cicerone-board/. This board is an STM32WL powered board with LoRaWAN connectivity in the Arduino MKR form factor. It features GPS connectivity through the onboard UBlox chip and onboard LiPo charging.

LoRa is a physical layer in the O.S.I network model. In this case the physical layer is RF signals. LoRa is one of many ways to get data over radio waves from a transmitter to a receiver somewhere else and LoRa is a short form of Long Range. LoRa transmissions can travel up to 15km in open rural spaces and up to about 5 kilometres in more dense urban areas.
LoRaWAN is a wide area network protocol that is built on top of the LoRa modulation that we have just described. Together LoRa and LoRaWAN form a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN). A typical LoRaWAN architecture is arranged in a star topology and consists of end devices, gateways, network servers, application servers and finally an end user application server.

hello ! thank you for your videos. I'm looking for a tutorial about connecting two Heltec ESP32 Wifi lora node cubecel asr6501sx1262 - do you know where to find it or maybe you will do a tutorial ? the purpose is to build a dashboard with node red an grafana but with a lora network - thanks a lot
how do I solve stream connection lost due to network error on my Lora gateway?
I wonder if LoRa is better also for inside? like between my laptop and my router there are 3 doors and like 15 meters (I had to buy a repeater).
So if I want a small sporadic signal between 2 MCUs at the same distance, is LoRa good enough? (my wifi network is already "saturated" with the computers and phones).
LoRa sounds like a good solution to that problem. You can set up a point to point system (without a gateway) also.
Thanks for this video. Something I don't understand about TTN : say I want to communicate between 2 devices that are 10km far from each other. Device A is in a zone without surrounding gateways so I need to setp my own. Problem is how do I know that my gateway will be able to relay messages to surrounding gateways in order to reach Device B? I understand TTN is a community mesh LORAWAN network therefore there's no guarantee 1 gateway will be close enough the another one in order to relay messages, is that right? Is there a way to 'simulate' a message travelling from point A to point B with all known TTN available gateways so that we can anticipate whether the message from A will reach B?
In this configuration using TTN, messages aren't relayed between gateways. Gateways are connected to TTN via the internet so communication is always: End device -> Gateway -> TTN and vice versa. All you need to make sure of is that you are in range of at least 1 gateway and that gateway is connected to the internet.
@@LearnEmbeddedSystems ok I get it now thanks!
