Overview This guide provides the basic information necessary for the designer to evaluate the suitability of the LoRa modem for their radio application. The design is s

7、mation. The main advantages of this approach are twofold: a substantial increase in receiver sensitivity due to the processing gain of the spread spectrum technique and a high tolerance to frequency misalignment between receiver and transmitter. To better understand how to implement a radio design u
8、sing the LoRa modulation format it is necessary to briefly examine the factors influencing radio receiver sensitivity. 2.2 Receiver Sensitivity The sensitivity of a radio receiver at room temperature is given by: Eqn. 1 The first term is due to thermal noise in 1 Hz of bandwidth and can only be infl
9、uenced by changing the temperature of the receiver. The second term, BW, is the receiver bandwidth. NF Is the receiver noise figure and is fixed for a given hardware implementation. Finally, SNR represents the signal to noise ratio required by the underling modulation scheme. It is the signal to noise ratio and bandwidth that are available as design variables to the LoRa designer. 2.3 SNR and Spreading Factor The basic premise of spread spectrum is that each bit of information is encoded as multiple chips. The relationship between the bit and chip rate for LoRa modulation, and resp
