Book Overview
This document, "Develop and Operate Your LoRaWAN IoT Nodes," authored by Claus Kühnel and published by Elektor International Media B.V., serves as a comprehensive guide for individuals looking to build and manage Internet of Things (IoT) nodes using LoRaWAN technology. It focuses on integrating ready-to-use devices and custom-built Arduino nodes within the popular "The Things Network" (TTN) ecosystem.
Diagram Description: The cover page illustrates a fundamental LoRaWAN network architecture. It depicts an 'End-Device', characterized by sensor icons (e.g., temperature, battery), establishing a 'Connection LoRa' to a 'Gateway'. The Gateway then communicates via 'Connection IP' to an 'Application Server'. The diagram also highlights key platforms and services integral to the LoRaWAN ecosystem, including Datacake, ThingSpeak, MQTT, Node-RED, The Things Stack Community Edition, and The Things Network, suggesting the practical applications and integrations covered in the book.
