Frequently Asked Questions
What is LoRaWAN?
LoRaWAN is a low-power, wide-area networking protocol designed for the Internet of Things (IoT). It enables long-range communication between devices and gateways, making it suitable for applications like smart metering, asset tracking, and environmental monitoring.
Why is an indoor site survey necessary for LoRaWAN?
Indoor environments present unique RF challenges such as signal attenuation through walls, multipath fading, and interference from other electronic devices. A site survey proactively identifies these issues to ensure reliable LoRaWAN coverage and performance.
What is the typical duration of an indoor LoRaWAN site survey?
The duration varies based on the size and complexity of the facility. A typical survey can range from one to several days, including on-site testing and post-analysis report generation.
