LoRaWAN SX1302 SUPPORT? PROJECT ARGO. #2

Open M10CUBE opened 3 months ago

M10CUBE commented 3 months ago

Hi, We are creating the ARGO module (Raspberry Pico footprint) based on nRF9151 SOC https://wizcube.eu/argo.html We also planning a new wizcube module code name M10LR01-01 PCB On board a mini-PCI card like this or similar. https://www.seeedstudio.com/WM1302-LoRaWAN-Gateway-Module-Without-SX126-SPI-EU868-p-5847.html Then ARGO module will be the application module to provide a LoRaWAN gateway to 4G, LTE-M/NB-IoT, WiFi6, BLE, DECT NR+ modem, GNSS, Thread and Matter Is any change to see SX1302 LoRaWAN support on Zephyr? Thanks a lot Vasilis

This repro leverages the LoRaMAC-node built in to Zephyr for devices. Adding SX1302 support for Zephyr wouldn't really be a thing as a gateway generally doesn't need such a meaty RTOS.

That meaty RTOS came for free after competing with other RTOS. It is a clear winner seen from the number and the quality of companies involved. The thing is that when SX1302 is supported in Zephyr can be ported easily in every bare metal CPU supported by Zephyr. Zephyr to me is write once use it many time. Like in any OS. That is good news.
