我正在尝试以低功耗模式并符合欧洲法规从一个ESP32 LoRa节点传输到另一个节点。

ESP32开发板:TTGO LoRa32 OLED开发板V1.0(herehere)。

在我写的LoRa发件人草图下方:

/*
 * LoRa (low-power) sender for IoT projects
 *
 * Tested on a TTGO LoRa32 OLED Board V1.0
 *
 * Based on the LoRa examples and the board
 * documentation
 *
 * More on the deep sleep with timer wake up:
 *
 *    Examples > ESP32 > Deep Sleep > TimerWakeUp sketch
 *
 *
 * ERC Recommendation
 * h1.4 frequency band requires <= 1% duty cycle and 25mW (14 db) maximum power
 * => 36 seconds every hour (so: 1 sec transmitting, 99 secs idle)
 *
 *
 * Created 11 June 2019
 * by DP

草图运行时没有错误(商店页面上的代码包含一些错误,因此我建议您只使用其中的一个)。我的问题:
  • 我忘了初始化SPI通信:
    SPI.begin (SCK, MISO, MOSI, SS);
    但是无论如何,它仍然有效。没想到我的第一个问题是:我想念什么?


  • 我住在欧洲。 ERC建议文件称,h1.4频段(我以868 Mhz的频率发射)需要小于= 1%的占空比和25mW(14db)的最大功率。这意味着我每小时可以传输36秒(假设我传输1秒钟,然后ESP32“休眠” 99秒钟)。我可以做到这一点(不是更准确的方法,但是应该可以):
    #define TIME_TO_SLEEP 99
    erp呢?假设天线的增益为2db,因此我可以将发射功率设置为12db(12db + 2db-> 14db,太好了。没关系!):
    LoRa.setTxPower(12);
    我的第二个问题:我正确(关于这两种设置)吗?我想念什么吗?


  • 最后一个问题:请随时给我任何(如果您有的话)反馈/建议以改进此草图!


  • 谢谢大家的帮助。

    最佳答案

    看起来不错,您是否在深度睡眠期间测试了功耗?我有一块相同的板(带OLED的TTGO ESP32 LORA),清醒时得到38-50mA,睡眠时得到10mA。发送完成后,您可以尝试LoRa.end()LoRa.sleep()将芯片送入睡眠状态,但是我不确定这可以节省多少电量。

    going on here讨论了更多有关降低功率的方法,但是对于TTGO,我无法将其降低到10mA以下。
