For example, the scenario for assessing the impact of the spreading factor on the ToA consists of sending 100 packets for three different spreading factors //e.g.,// 7, 9, and 10, and drawing the average ToA or the distribution in a boxplot for comparing the results. | For example, the scenario for assessing the impact of the spreading factor on the ToA consists of sending 100 packets for three different spreading factors //e.g.,// 7, 9, and 10, and drawing the average ToA or the distribution in a boxplot for comparing the results. | ||

These TPs should be astutely chosen to explore the limits of LoRa coverage. Then, you should implement a function on the server that measures the ratio of successfully delivered packets or PDR (Packet Delivery Ratio). Now, you should run the experiment for three different radio configurations: |
