The LR1110 is an ultra-low power platform targeting geolocation
applications. It integrates a long range LoRa® transceiver, a
multi-constellation global navigation satellite system (GNSS)
scanner, and a passive Wi-Fi® Access Point MAC address scanner.
For LPWAN use cases, the LR1110 supports LoRa and (G)FSK
modulation on sub-GHz bands, as well as Sigfox® modulation on
sub-GHz bands, and Long Range Frequency Hopping Spread
Spectrum (LR-FHSS) on sub-GHz bands.
The LR1110 complies with the physical layer requirements of the
LoRaWAN® specification released by LoRa Alliance®, while
remaining highly configurable to meet different application
requirements and proprietary protocols.
The transceiver is suitable for systems targeting compliance with
radio standards including but not limited to ETSI EN 300 220, FCC
CFR 47 Part 15, ARIB, and Chinese regulatory requirements.
Besides world-wide sub-GHz communication capabilities, the
very-low power multi-band front-end is capable of acquiring
several signals of opportunity used for geolocation:
• 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi Access Point MAC addresses
• GNSS (GPS, BeiDou, geostationary) satellite signals
Acquired information is transmitted over an LPWAN network to a
geolocation server. The geolocation server analyses the signal
information and calculates the LR1110's position with data from a
geolocation database, enabling a valuable balance between low
power and performance.
The LR1110 geolocation capability is further increased by
Bluetooth® Low Energy beaconing compatibility to allow indoor
and outdoor geolocation use cases, as well as a powerful sub-GHz
ranging engine for localization and recovery of lost assets in
logistics applications.
