What does LoRaWAN mean?

Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) is a type of Low-Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN) protocol designed for long-range communication between low-power devices.
LoRaWAN is based on the Long Range (LoRa) modulation technique, which enables devices to communicate over distances of several kilometers while consuming minimal power.
LoRaWAN is often used in a variety of Internet of Things (IoT) applications, such as smart agriculture, smart cities, industrial automation, asset tracking, and environmental monitoring, where long-range communication and low-power operation are essential requirements.
