|
|
Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) for IBM's LMIC 1.6 communication stack
|
|
targeted to RPi and Dragino LoRA/GPS HAT.
|
|
|
|
The goal was to keep the LMIC 1.6 sourcecode untouched, and just provide a
|
|
Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) for Raspberry Pi and Dragino LoRa/GPS HAT.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
### WiringPi
|
|
To control the RPi's GPI ports, the WiringPi GPIO interface library has to
|
|
be installed. On some operating systems WiringPi is already installed per
|
|
default. For instructions on manual installation please refer to the
|
|
following site:
|
|
http://wiringpi.com/download-and-install/
|
|
|
|
### Enable SPI interface
|
|
Per default, the SPI ports on the Raspberry Pi are disabled. You need to
|
|
manually enable them using raspi-config.
|
|
Follow the instructions given here:
|
|
https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/spi/README.md
|
|
|
|
## Note on LMIC 1.6 license

IBM "LoRa WAN in C" is the LoRa WAN implementation of choice, and a perfect
|
|
match to the IBM LRSC on the end device. It is provided as open source under
|

## Example "hello"
|
|
Directory: /examples/hello
|
|
|
|
Modifications neccessary: None
|
|
|
|
This example does not use radio, it just periodically logs a counter value.
|
|
Can be used to checked if the timer implemenation on RPi works as expected.
|
|
|
|
cd examples/hello
|
|
make clean
|
|
make
|
|
sudo ./build/hello.out
