What is LoRa and How to Use it with Raspberry Pi:
The term LoRa stands for Long Range. It is a wireless Radio frequency technology introduced by a company called Semtech. This LoRa technology can be used to transmit bi-directional information to long distance without consuming much power. LoRa is getting increasingly popular with the advent of IoT, Connected Cars, M2M, Industry 4.0 etc. Because of its ability to communicate to long distances with very less power it is preferably used by designers to send/receive data from a battery powered Thing. We have already discussed the basics of LoRa and how to use LoRa with Arduino. Although the technology is originally intended for a LoRa Node to communicate with a LoRa gateway, there are many scenarios in which a LoRa Node has to communicate with another LoRa Node to exchange information over long distance.

The below tutorial explains how to use a LoRa module SX1278 with Raspberry pi to communicate with another SX1278 connected to a microcontroller like Arduino. This method can come in handy at many places since the Arduino could act as a Server to fetch data from sensors and send it to Pi over a long distance through LoRa and then the Pi acting as a Client can receive these information and upload it to the could since it has access to internet.
