Essential Requirements
✓ #1 - Long Range, greater than existing infrastructure
✓ #2 - Long battery autonomy, 10 years or more
✓ #3 - Low cost: infrastructure, nodes, service
✓ #4 - Scalable & robust infrastructure
✓ #5 - Secure and trusted
✓ #6 - Simple commissioning
✓ #7 - Open & interoperable standard
✓ #8 - “Killer-App” features
✗High data rate – not needed in most IoT systems

What is LoRaTM Technology?
A combination of two major concepts:
• LoRaTM spread spectrum modulation
• Provides the core long range capability
Up to 5km range in urban environment, up to 15km suburban
• Developed by Cycleo, acquired by Semtech
• Powerful gateway baseband allows multiple receive channels
• LoRaWANTM network protocol stack
• Provides the cellular network (aka large-star topology)
• Defined by IBM & Actility, made open by the LoRaTM Alliance
• Flat & modern “software defined” architecture:
• Routing complexity is centralized in the cloud data center
• Gateways are relatively basic RF-to-IP packet forwarders

Innovative & cost sensitive transceiver implementation
 Demodulate signals below the noise floor, improving sensitivity by ~20dB
 Robust against interference, noise, and jamming from WiFi, BT, GSM, 3G, LTE
 Multiples signals can occupy the same channel (CDMA)
 Tolerant to frequency offsets (unlike DSSS or narrow-band)

LoRaWAN™ Coverage Test
Smart City Coverage !
• 1000 node demo during
Electronica trade-show
• 6 gateways, giving full
coverage of NW quarter of
Munich City
• 15km between suburban GWs
• 5km between urban GWs
• Excellent robust comms and
indoor penetration

What is LoRaWANTM Protocol?
(WAN = Wide Area Network)
 A Large-Scale,
Bi-directional, Secured, Cellular Network
 Designed for low data-rate (~1kbps), low duty-cycle (~100mins),
high capacity (~100k nodes) & long battery life (~10yrs)
 Developed, maintained and promoted by the LoRaTM Alliance
 Microchip is a founder member and sits on Strategic, Marketing
& Technical committees
 Deployable as both public or private networks
 Scalable from a single gateway to national coverage

Case Study: Senet (USA)

A single business case was enough to justify building a
private LoRaWAN™ network






Heating fuel (propane) delivery to residential properties
Previously inefficient – were filling cautiously when still 50% full
Adding cloud-connected level sensor reduces 2 to 3 deliveries / year
Also creates customer interaction, fuel level data is viewable online
Looked at cellular (too power hungry) and Wi-Fi (intrusive to
customer’s network) but found LoRaWAN to be the best solution
Once established, Senet is able to open this LoRaWAN
network as a public service

Multi-tenant business model further improves revenue and ROI
Expands network, improves density & capacity
‘Almost instant’ availability of a public network
