How designers can make use of their LoRa Network Gateways in India

Auto extracted Text……

In a typical LoRa system, the LoRa devices (Nodes) have to communicate with a gateway provider to get connected to the internet and form an IoT system.
In India, excluding the global players like ‘The Things Network’, we have two LoRa network providers till date, namely the Tata Communications and SenRa. At the time of this article, SenRa has already covered 44 popular Smart cities in India and are still expanding.
What’s more interesting is that as a developer or hobbyist you get to use their services for free and connect upto 10 LoRa devices using their network.
How can I connect my LoRa devices to the gateway of a network provider like SenRa?
If you have our network in your area then you can get into our SenRa portal (https://portal.senraco.io/) and set-up your free account and register your devices.
The documents available at (https://docs.senraco.io/) will you help you in registering and setting up your device with SenRa. Once you have registered your device you can start communicating with the network and see all the uplink and downlink information on the network portal.
The actual payload (data) that you are sending to SenRa from your LoRa nodes will be encrypted; this is because as a network operator we are not allowed to peek into your proprietary data.
From here you can use the unique features in our portal that allows you to route the payload to your own application portal or to Ginjer which is SenRa own IoT analytics tools.
Comparing SenRa, we are solely focused on LoRa network services and we do not work on any parallel network technology like telephony or telematics.
If you are a developer and would just like to test our services you can also use your own gateways and link it with SenRa. You can refer to our documentation where we have listed all the supported gateways and how to use them.
In managed parking solution, a parking lot manager can deploy the devices and use our network services and application to regulate parking
