Beginning LoRa Radio Networks with Arduino

"Beginning LoRa Radio Networks with Arduino" by Pradeeka Seneviratne is a great guide for people with various tech backgrounds who want to explore the Long Range (LoRa) technology using the Arduino platform.

The book starts with the basics of LoRa and LoRaWAN, discussing their potential integration with the open-source electronic prototyping platform.

If you’ve never worked with this tiny computer before, you will be happy to hear that the author has dedicated a full chapter to Arduino, discussing the necessary hardware and software.

Pradeeka Seneviratne also shows his readers how to configure the Arduino board for LoRa communication, and then teaches them how to build a simple LoRa node, which will later become a section of a LoRa network.

It’s a book written mainly for beginners, and the straightforward explanations demonstrate that clearly. However, I am pretty sure that even advanced techies will have something to learn from the section about network design and deployment, as well as from some of the more advanced projects – like the weather station, for example.
