In deploying LoRaWAN networks, many users notice an interesting phenomenon: most outdoor LoRaWAN gateways do not come equipped with indicator lights, while indoor gateways often do. What are the technical and design considerations behind this? This article will provide a detailed explanation. 1. The usage environment of outdoor gateways is more complex Outdoor LoRaWAN gateways […]

With the widespread adoption of LoRaWAN technology in the Internet of Things (IoT), the selection of gateway chips has become increasingly important. Semtech’s SX1301 and SX1302 are two mainstream LoRaWAN gateway baseband chips, and they differ significantly in terms of performance, power consumption, and communication capabilities. This article will explore the key differences between SX1301

LoRaWAN technology has become a key communication solution in the LPWAN (Low-Power Wide-Area Network) space, thanks to its characteristics of low power consumption, wide coverage, and massive connectivity. However, with the rapid growth in the number of IoT devices, the limitations of traditional LoRaWAN gateways in terms of frequency points and channel capacity have gradually

🔗 Bluetooth: The People’s Choice for Short-Range, Device-to-Device Communication Commonly used for wearable devices, smart locks, health monitoring devices, and proximity-based IoT systems. 📷 WiFi: High-Speed Data-Intensive Communication Used extensively in smart offices, home devices, and streaming services — but not ideal for battery-centric or long-range use. 📊 Comparative Overview of LoRa and Other Technologies

n today’s rapidly evolving Internet of Things (IoT) landscape, achieving interoperability between devices, ensuring data security, minimizing power consumption, and reducing deployment costs have become key industry concerns. LoRaWAN, as a standardized wireless communication protocol, is gaining widespread adoption across smart cities, industrial monitoring, agriculture, and environmental sensing due to its advantages in low-power, long-range

n the world of IoT (Internet of Things), especially in large-scale LoRaWAN-based deployments, the ability to remotely update firmware is not just a convenience — it’s a necessity. This is where FUOTA (Firmware Update Over The Air) comes into play.Once thousands of devices are deployed in the field — whether in smart cities, agriculture, or
