00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:04,170
In this chapter, we'll dive into the LoRa-modulation.
1

2
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:11,700
We need to understand how the binary data are transmitted in the air, then we'll estimate the bitrate of transmission
2

3
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:18,450
first by using theoretical values from the datasheet and then practical value that we can really expect
3

4
00:00:18,450 --> 00:00:19,080
in the field.
4

5
00:00:20,010 --> 00:00:26,880
That will depend on parameters such as: the Spreading Factor, the Coding Rate, the Bandwidth, the
5

6
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:28,950
Time-On-Air and the Duty Cycle.
6

7
00:00:29,070 --> 00:00:32,670
But of course, all these terms will be defined and explained in detail.
7

8
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:40,410
Then, we'll simulate a LoRa packet transmission with a software called LoRa Calculator, and this will
8

9
00:00:40,410 --> 00:00:42,810
allow us to confirm the previous results.
9

10
00:00:43,230 --> 00:00:47,430
Finally, we'll learn how to estimate the power consumption of LoRa device.
10

11
00:00:47,820 --> 00:00:48,780
This consumption.
11

12
00:00:48,780 --> 00:00:52,950
So the autonomy of the device depends on several transmission parameters.
12

13
00:00:53,310 --> 00:00:57,150
Once again, for this explanation we will see this through an example.
