Introduction

The aim of this project is to show an example of the endpoint LoRaWAN stack implementation.

This project has 3 active branches in place. The master branch which provides the latest released source code (v4.4.1), the develop branch which provides the current source code development status to be released next (Milestone 4.4.2) and the feature/5.0.0 branch which provides a preview of the current source code development status for LoRaWAN Specification v1.1 specification.(Milestone 5.0.0)

The develop and feature/5.0.0 branches both rely on a software emulated secure-element implementation. Please refer to the Secure element API document for further information.

This project also provides SX1272/73, SX1276/77/78/79 and SX1261/2 radio drivers.

For each currently supported platform example applications are provided.

  • LoRaMac/classA: ClassA end-device example application.

  • LoRaMac/classB: ClassB end-device example application.

  • LoRaMac/classC: ClassC end-device example application.

  • ping-pong: Point to point RF link example application.

  • rx-sensi: Example application useful to measure the radio sensitivity level using an RF generator.

  • tx-cw: Example application to show how to generate an RF Continuous Wave transmission.

Note: Each LoRaWAN application example (LoRaMac/classX) includes an implementation of the LoRa-Alliacne; LoRaWAN certification protocol.

Note: The LoRaWAN stack API documentation can be found at: http://stackforce.github.io/LoRaMac-doc/

Supported platforms

This project currently provides support for the below platforms.
This project can be ported to other platforms using different MCU than the ones currently supported.
The Porting Guide document provides guide lines on how to port the project to other platforms.

Usage

A CMAKE building system is used in order to generate the right set of files to compile and debug the different projects.

Further information can be found in Development environment document.

  • LoRaWAN

    1. Removed support for previous LoRaMac/LoRaWAN specifications
    2. Added missing MAC commands and updated others when necessary

      • Corrected the Port 0 MAC commands decryption

      • Changed the way the upper layer is notified. Now it is only notified when all the operations are finished.

        When a ClassA Tx cycle starts a timer is launched to check every second if everything is finished.

      • Added a new parameter to LoRaMacEventFlags structure that indicates on which Rx window the data has been received.

      • Added a new parameter to LoRaMacEventFlags structure that indicates if there is applicative data on the received payload.

      • Corrected ADR MAC command behavior

      • DutyCycle enforcement implementation (EU868 PHY only)

        REMARK 1 The regulatory duty cycle enforcement is enabled by default which means that for lower data rates the node may not transmit a new frame as quickly as requested. The formula used to compute the node idle time is

        Toff = TimeOnAir / DutyCycle - TxTimeOnAir

        Example: A device just transmitted a 0.5 s long frame on one default channel. This channel is in a sub-band allowing 1% duty-cycle. Therefore this whole sub-band (868 MHz - 868.6 MHz) will be unavailable for 49.5 s.

        REMARK 2 The duty cycle enforcement can be disabled for test purposes by calling the LoRaMacSetDutyCycleOn function with false parameter.

      • Implemented aggregated duty cycle management

      • Added a function to create new channels

      • Implemented the missing features on the JoinAccept MAC command

      • Updated LoRaMacJoinDecrypt function to handle the CFList field.

    3. Due to duty cycle management the applicative API has changed. All applications must be updated accordingly.
    4. Added the possibility to chose to use either public or private networks

2014-07-10, v2.3.RC2

  • General
    1. Corrected all radios antenna switch low power mode handling.
    2. SX1276: Corrected antenna switch control.

2014-06-06, v2.3.RC1

  • General

    1. Added the support for SX1276 radio.

    2. Radio continuous reception mode correction.

    3. Radio driver RxDone callback function API has changed ( size parameter is no more a pointer). Previous function prototype:

       void    ( *RxDone )( uint8_t *payload, uint16_t *size, double rssi, double snr, uint8_t rawSnr );

      New function prototype:

       void    ( *RxDone )( uint8_t *payload, uint16_t size, double rssi, double snr, uint8_t rawSnr );

    4. Added Bleeper-76 and SensorNode platforms support.

    5. Added to the radio drivers a function that generates a random value from RSSI readings.

    6. Added a project to transmit a continuous wave and a project to measure the the radio sensitivity.

    7. Added a bootloader project for the LoRaMote and SensorNode platforms.

    8. The LoRaMac application for Bleeper platforms now sends the Selector and LED status plus the sensors values.

      • The application payload for the Bleeper platforms is as follows:

        LoRaMac port 1:

           { 0xX0/0xX1, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 }
    ----------  ----------  ----------  ----------  ----
         |           |           |           |        |
   SELECTOR/LED  PRESSURE   TEMPERATURE  ALTITUDE  BATTERY
   MSB nibble = SELECTOR               (barometric)
   LSB bit    = LED

    9. Redefined rand() and srand() standard C functions. These functions are redefined in order to get the same behavior across different compiler tool chains implementations.

    10. GPS driver improvements. Made independent of the board platform.

    11. Simplified the RTC management.

    12. Added a function to the timer driver that checks if a timer is already in the list or not.

    13. Added the UART Overrun bit exception handling to the UART driver.

    14. Removed dependency of spi-board files to the "__builtin_ffs" function. This function is only available on GNU compiler tool suite. Removed --gnu compiler option from Keil projects. Added own __ffs function implementation to utilities.h file.

    15. Removed obsolete class1 devices support.

    16. Known bugs correction.
