LoRa WAN user here, not to get confused with Ai LoRA.
LoRa has been a game-changer for IoT devices on the 900mHz spectrum. Chirping allows LoRa to go extremely great distances for free!
Overall, the 900mHz band is for hobbyists. I’m grateful that Meshtastic is stepping up regarding this matter although they’re not the sole beneficiary.
The FCC should not take this away from the public. 900mHz works through non-line-of-sight applications sufficiently well and anything above frequency will require higher power to generate an equivalent signal. High frequencies are not ideal for low data rate projects.
- hi-v-rocknroll 2y agoCan confirm by extensive 464, 900 MHz, and 2.4 GHz radio field testing of products and test equipment for WAAS-like GPS data updates conducted c. 2000. 2.4+ GHz just doesn't play well with building materials, while 900 MHz provides the right balance of bandwidth and attenuation. PS: It's not millihertz (mHz), it's megahertz (MHz).
