讲座简介:
Low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs) have recently emerged as a promising communication technology for the Internet of Things (IoT). LPWANs are designed to achieve large coverage ranges, extend battery lifetimes of end-devices, and reduce the operational cost of traditional cellular networks. By exploiting the unlicensed, industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) frequency band and transmitting small packets at low data rates, these networks can be operated with very low reception sensitivities. The long-range and low-power properties of LPWANs make these networks an interesting candidate for smart sensing technology in civil infrastructures as well as in industrial applications.
This talk first introduces the chirp spread spectrum (CSS) technique used in low-power wide-area networks known as LoRa. Then it presents novel approaches to modulate and demodulate LoRa signals with high implementation efficiency, flexibility and excellent performance. The last part of the talk explains a method to exploit the phase information of CSS signals to encode extra information bits, leading to throughput improvement of the conventional CSS system.
