LPWAN

LoRa and MQTT In many LoRaWAN implementations, the communication between the Gateways and the Network Server is achieved using the MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) protocol . MQTT is a publish-subscribe protocol that transports messages between devices.

LoRaWAN is a low-power, wide area networking protocol built on top of the LoRa radio modulation technique . It wirelessly connects devices to the internet and manages communication between end-node devices and network gateways.

LoRa is a modulation technique for specific wireless spectrum, while LoRaWAN is an open protocol that enables IoT devices to use LoRa for communication .

The LORIOT Gateway Software is using TCP as the protocol for data delivery, which guarantees reliable delivery of data.
