All About LORA
What Is LoRa®?
LoRa (short for long range) is a spread spectrum modulation technique derived from chirp spread spectrum (CSS) technology.
LoRa is a long range, low power wireless platform that has become the de facto wireless platform of Internet of Things (IoT).
LoRa devices and networks such as the LoRaWAN® enable smart IoT applications that solve some of the biggest challenges facing our planet: energy management, natural resource reduction, pollution control, infrastructure efficiency, and disaster prevention.
LoRa devices have amassed several hundred known uses cases for smart cities, homes and buildings, communities, metering, supply chain and logistics, agriculture, and more.
With hundreds of millions of devices connected to networks in more than 100 countries and growing, LoRa is creating a smarter planet.
Why LoRa Technology
LoRa devices have revolutionized the Internet of Things (IoT) by enabling data communication over a long range while using very little power.
When connected to a non-cellular LoRaWAN® network, sensor devices with LoRa chipsets accommodate a vast range of IoT applications by transmitting packets with important information.
LoRa is the de facto technology for IoT based on its widespread adoption and will be responsible for connecting the next billion IoT devices.
LoRa is flexible for rural or indoor use cases in smart agriculture, smart cities, industrial IoT (IIoT), smart environment, smart homes and buildings, smart utilities and metering, and smart supply chain and logistics.
With an ever-increasing number of IoT vertical applications, LoRa devices and the LoRaWAN protocol is creating business efficiencies and improving lives around the world.
