| 433 | == 7.5 Limited of using LA66 as relay of LoRaWAN == | ||
| 434 | |||
| 435 | |||
| 436 | LA66 is a LoRa End Node module base on SX1262 core. Use it as relay as mentioned above has below limitation: | ||
| 437 | |||
| 438 | 1. It only supports LoRa radio with fix frequency, fix DR (Spreading Factor) , Fix bandwidth and | ||
| 439 | 1. This method only support uplinks. It doesn;t work for LoRaWAN Downlink. | ||
| 440 | 1. Capacity depends on how often the end nodes sends send uplinks. The LA66 needs to spends around 1~~3 seconds to relay one packet ( depends on DR. inlcudes RX and TX time). | ||
