Lora (from long range) is a physical proprietary radio communication technique based on spread spectrum modulation Lora, short for long range, is a proprietary physical layer (phy) protocol developed by semtech Lora is a wireless modulation technique derived from chirp spread spectrum (css) technology
It is exactly what its name suggests, and the long range means creating wireless connections that travel much further than traditional technologies like wifi or bluetooth. Chirp spread spectrum is a spread spectrum technique that uses wideband linear frequency modulated chirp pulses to encode information. Lora is the de facto wireless platform of internet of things (iot)
Here’s a breakdown of what you need to know if you're considering it for your iot device. One technology you might not have heard of, yet, is lora (taken from ‘long range’), which is a physical proprietary radio communication technique. Lora is a proprietary spread spectrum modulation scheme that is based on chirp spread spectrum modulation (css)
