16-channel v2.1 Geolocation Reference Design; optional 64-channel upgrade
The product can operate in two modes: standard and geolocation. The standard product operates as a 16-channel, full duplex gateway, supporting both packet-forwarder and built-in network server modes. The geolocation product is based on the Semtech v2.1 reference design, which uses the LoRaWAN™ protocol to perform Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA) calculations to deliver end-node location information in conjunction with a v2.1 LoRa Network Server. This technology provides asset location information that enables a variety of use cases, services and business models that GPS limitations cannot support.
