To add repeater function to gateway

Open IoTThinks opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

If a gateway receives a weak signal (low RSSI < xxx dBm), the gateway will replay the packets again for nearby gateway.

Or to have fwd_id in the packet to route the packet to the wanted gateway.

Is this working yet? It would be useful if this could be used even if the rssi is good, creating a mesh network and increasing the final range...

I haven't started doing this feature. The range is quite ok for me.

Just put the gateway higher to have clear of sight.

The range is good, but it could add even more range :) Is it possible to re-send a package (like a repeater), but using only one sx127x module?

Yeap, I'm thinking to implement message queues to store incoming/outgoing message messages.

Then can re-send packets based on the queue.
