1.2 Overview
LR1110 is a long range, ultra-low power transceiver aimed to enhance LoRa®-based geolocation applications. It supports
LoRa® and (G)FSK modulations for LPWAN use cases. The device is highly configurable over the 150MHz-960MHz ISM bands
to meet different application requirements utilizing the global LoRaWAN® standard or proprietary protocols.
Besides the world-wide sub-GHz transceiver capabilities, the device feature a very low power multi-band front-end that can
acquire several signals of opportunity for geolocation purposes (802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi AP MAC addresses, GNSS (GPS, BeiDou)
satellites signals). The acquired information is transmitted using a LPWAN network to a geolocation server, which computes
the position of the object.
