Brief Overview of LG01-N Single Channel LoRa IoT Gateway

LG01-N is an open source single channel LoRa Gateway. It lets you bridge LoRa wireless network to an IP network via WiFi, Ethernet, Or 3G/4G cellular via optional LTE module. The LoRa wireless allows users to send data and reach extremely long ranges at low data-rates. It provides ultra-long range spread spectrum communication and high interference immunity.

LG01-N can support Limited LoRaWAN protocol in single frequency and customized LoRa transmit protocol. Different from LG01-P/LG01-S, LG01-N use the Linux to directly control the sx1276/sx1278 LoRa module which increase the communication efficiency and simplify the software design.

LG01-N can be used to provide a low cost IoT wireless solution to support 50~300 sensor nodes. Except LoRaWAN mode, LG01-N can support mutiply working mode  such as: MQTT mode, TCP/IP Client  mode to fit different requirement for IoT connection.  LG01-N base on sx1276 solution which provide a low cost for your IoT network connection. Compare to the cost with normal SX1301 LoRaWAN solution. the LG01-N is only of its 1/4 or less cost. This make the LG01-N very suitable to set up small scale LoRa network.
