 Starting from September 2016, Saint-Joseph University of Beirut (USJ) will be deploying the first academic [[http://www.semtech.com/wireless-rf/internet-of-things/what_is_lora.html | LoRa]] network in Lebanon. The network will support monitoring of micro-climate conditions in vineyards. Here below you can find a detailed description of the experimental platform implementing an end-to-end LoRaWAN solution. The platform consists of the following elements:
-  * Devices that communicate to one or more gateways via a wireless interface using single hop LoRa. These devices implement a

-with a sensing interface and a communication interface implementing the LoRaWAN protocol.
+  * Gateways or base stations that forward frames between the devices and the network server. Gateways are connected to the network server via IP interfaces.
-  * Gateways or base stations that relay the radio frames to the IP backend.
+  * A LoRAWAN backend that implements the network server functions and provides frame control and security.

+  * Applications that enable to visualize and store the sensor data obtained from the devices.
-  * Application examples that enable to visualize and store the sensor data.
