Purpose

Create a two-way communication prototype between handheld transceivers using LoRaWAN, exploit its long-range data capability, and measure the maximum distance at which the devices reliably exchange messages.

Description

Each handheld unit combines an Arduino with a LoRa radio module (RFM96W and RFM69HCW variants were built), a GPS receiver for live position tracking, and an OLED display for messages and coordinates. The firmware implements addressed two-way messaging with a high spreading factor for maximum range, and a variant adds a DHT sensor so environmental readings travel alongside chat and GPS data during field range testing.
