Abstract: | LoRa is a recently introduced modulation scheme specifically designed for Low-Power Wide-Area Networks.
In this paper, we provide the first detailed and complete description of the LoRa PHY layer, and present a
novel methodology for detecting and decoding LoRa frames using Software Defined Radios. Our proposed
decoding approach can efficiently decode multiple channels simultaneously in software due to an invariance
towards the signal frequency. Hence, our approach also removes the need for correcting frequency offset errors
imparted by the transmitter or receiver. We have evaluated our decoding technique in a lab setup using three
Software Defined Radios (USRP B210, HackRF, and RTL-SDR) and three commercial off-the-shelf hardware
LoRa transceivers (Microchip RN2483, HopeRF RFM96, and Semtech SX1272). We show that our decoder
is fully compatible with all configurations of the RN2483 and SX1272, achieving an overall packet error rate
of 0 for a signal-to-noise ratio of 20 dB. The source code of the decoder and datasets used in the evaluation
are made available publicly |
