Follow Radio Remi as one desk-test reading may create gateway copies without proving field performance.
One field meter sends one test reading.
Two gateways may hear the same radio message.
The service must handle those copies as one reading.
The test still cannot prove real field range.
Start With the Module
This section: Start With the Module — This guide maps the current learning path for LoRa & LoRaWAN.
Intermediate LoRaWAN module index that introduces the LoRa and LoRaWAN pathway, distinguishes modulation from network architecture, and guides learners through architecture, device classes, ADR, security, deployment, and review chapters.
This guide maps the current learning path for LoRa & LoRaWAN. The module contains 17 chapters, linked below in the order learners can study them.

Assistive-technology missions
Design a useful alert around a person's needs and context. These draft scenarios await co-writing and review with an access group.
Choose a mission to see its starter parts. You can plan and simulate it without a physical kit.
Ayo, 72, wants to know when the back door is left open.
Starter parts: Door sensor, buzzer, an MQTT message to a phone.
Plan how to detect a door left open and how Ayo can choose an alert. Describe how you would check that the alert is useful with the person who will use it.
A class wants a quiet alert for a hallway with no signal.
Starter parts: Vibration pad, LoRaWAN link, battery plan.
Plan a quiet alert and a link for the hallway. State your assumptions about coverage and battery life, and how you would check the alert with the people who will use it.
Describe needs and context, never medical conditions. Use a simulation for your first design.

What can I try when a project does not work?
Check the symptom, then work through the diagnostic steps. Keep the error message and the smallest example that reproduces it.
