[TriEmbed] thoughts on LoRaWAN

[Kevin McClaning]

I have played around with the Semtech SX1262 and SX1276 ICs. They handle 
most of the unpleasant physical layer stuff by themselves (e.g. 
generating/checking CRCs, generating the spread spectrum waveforms, 
detecting preambles, etc). On the transmit end, you just hand them your 
data. At the receive end, they interrupt you when they have a packet 
ready for you. You still have to handle all the higher-level OSI stack 
stuff yourself. I image that's where the LoRaWAN stuff comes in but I 
don't know much about that.
