Ward Mattar / Mbed 2 deprecated Formula_LoRa_Receiver

This is code is part of a Technion course project in advanced IoT, implementing a device to receive and present sensors data from a Formula racing car built by students at Technion - Israel Institute of Technology.

Dependencies:   mbed Buffer

Fork of DISCO-L072CZ-LRWAN1_LoRa_PingPong by ST

This is code is part of a Technion course project in advanced IoT, implementing a device to receive sensors data from another L072CZ-LRWAN1 installed on a Formula racing car (built by students at Technion - Israel Institute of Technology), and sends it to a GUI presenting the data (GUI project: github.com/ward-mattar/TechnionFormulaGUI).

How to install

  • Create an account on Mbed: https://os.mbed.com/account/signup/
  • Import project into Compiler
  • In the Program Workspace select "Formula_Nucleo_Receiver"
  • Select a Platform like so:
  1. Click button at top-left
  2. Add Board
  3. Search "NUCLEO F103RB" and then "Add to your Mbed Compiler"
  • Finally click "Compile", if the build was successful, the binary would download automatically
  • To install it on device simply plug it in to a PC, open device drive and drag then drop binary file in it

+# SX1276Generic Driver
+/*
+* (c) 2017 Helmut Tschemernjak (Helmut64 on mbed).
+* 30826 Garbsen (Hannover) Germany
+*/
+
+This library represents a common SX1276 module driver supporting SX1276
+based modules. The approach is to support multiple OS versions including
+mbed, Arduino and Linux using the same driver code and little
+adjustments for the different OS version. The SX1276 driver is based on
+the Semtech 1276 code which can be seen in the revisions of this library
+repository.
+
+## Supported LoRa Modules
+
+The following Lora modules are supported:
+- HopeRF RFM95
+- Murata MURATA_SX1276 (CMWX1ZZABZ-078, used the STM B_L072Z_LRWAN1 board)
+- SX1276MB1MAS (433, 868 MHz version)
+- SX1276MB1LAS (433, 915 MHz version)
+
+## Getting Started for Developers
+Import the mbed sample project:
+http://developer.mbed.org/users/Helmut64/code/STM32L0_LoRa
+- It includes a PingPong sample code
+- It includes a PinMap.h which allows to define the LoRa SPI,
+DIO interrupt, reset and antenna pins.
+The STM32L0_LoRa is a turnkey sample application for the STM B_L072Z_LRWAN1,
+however it will work with all other mbed based boards by adjusting the PinMap.h
+
+## Developers help needed
+A list of tasks is documented in the file: LoRa_TODO.txt
+I (Helmut Tschemernjak) spend a very significant time to complete the
+initial version of the SX1276Generic packet driver. Enhancements,
+further module support and tuning is more than welcome. Please send me
+your patches via mbed. Also questions can be submitted in the mbed
+“Questions” area or a personal message via mbed.
+
+## Future developments
+I work in a advanced private protocol using basic LoRa modules to
+communicate between simple nodes (battery powered) and stations
+(permanent power). The station should support thousands of nodes running
+on an Linux based OS using this 1276Generic driver or the LoRa
+concentrator module. The station should also work on mbed or Arduino
+assuming sufficient memory is provided. I believe there is an
+opportunity to do a better protocol compared to the official LoRa
+protocol which requires an Concentrator, a LoRa server and an
+application server. The idea is to over only efficient, reliable and
+secure communication between the nodes and the stations. Further
+forwarding to MQTT and other network services can be handled separately
+on the station.
