Features

• Ready to go Wio Terminal LoRaWAN Field Tester. No setup, just power it on! The included communication allows a normal use for 3 to 5 years.
• Compact size, support Type C power bank charge to bring the device everywhere.
• Monitor the LongFi network performance from the field to verify the coverage and know the different Gateways / Hotspots covering a given place.
• Find the best places to deploy new Gateways / Hotspots.
• Directly display network and GPS information on the Wio Terminal screen

Applications

The WioLoRaWanFieldTester provides different features, all-in-one:

• Field Tester - it allows to monitor the LoRaWan / LongFi network performance from the field. That way you can verify the coverage and know the different Gateways / Hotspots covering a given place. It helps to find the best places to deploy new Gateways / Hotspots, compare different places to optimize the network deployment. It can show signal strength in real-time and allows the testing of different network parameters.

• Mapper - it automatically transfers the positions to the network mappers - Helium Mappers and Coverage Map - to create a map of coverage. This map is important to understand where it is possible to use the network. It is a key point for giving trust to the network and motivating the service providers to use it.

• Tracker - it can be connected to tracking services like cargo to track cars, people, assets in real-time.

• Multi-zone: supports EU868, AS923, US915, KR920, IN865, AU915

• Friendly to developers: compatible with over 300 Plug and Play Grove modules to create IoT nodes. The firmware is open-source and can be upgraded like moving a file to a directory.

Principles

When Wio Terminal is connecting to the network, it starts sending messages on regular basis, meanwhile, the onboarded GPS is getting the device's position in real-time. This message is acknowledged by the network to retrieve the information requested for field testing. Each of the messages is processed by a dedicated application computing advanced Field Testing information later transmitted back to the device. When the GPS signal quality is correct, the location is transferred to the mappers and tracking services.

All the Field Testing information is displayed on the Wio Terminal screen where you can also set up different radio parameters.
