LoRa mesh networks for the IoT

LoRa Mesh Networks: We are interested in studying LoRa mesh networks through simulations and practical implementations.

Within a PhD thesis we designed a routing protocol for LoRa mesh networks [1].

We have implemented the routing protocol to run in a real system [5][7][8][9].
