What Is LoRa Spread Spectrum Technology?
LoRa (Long Range) is a proprietary spread spectrum modulation technique developed by Semtech. It allows data to be transmitted over very long distances (up to several kilometres in open environments) while consuming minimal power. This makes it the go-to choice for IoT devices, remote sensors, smart agriculture, and industrial monitoring applications.
