Hello everyone , I’ve been lurking for quite some time but finally decided to make an account so I could ask a question, I have no idea what category this falls under so I’ll keep in uncategorized untill told otherwise.
At my company we’re currently running a really old loraserver and a new chirpstack. In the old loraserver (sorry don’t know the exact version) the gw-metadata on a regular uplink is something like:
"rxInfo": [
{
"mac": "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa",
"rssi": -66,
"loRaSNR": 8.8,
"name": "gateway1",
"altitude": 5
},
{
"mac": "bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb",
"time": "2019-12-19T15:23:03Z",
"rssi": -75,
"loRaSNR": 9,
"name": "gateway2"
}
]
(I removed gps-data)
I interpret this as gateway1 and gateway2 recieved the uplink but gateway1 had better rssi. In the latest chirpstack we get something like:
"rxinfo": [
{
"gatewayID": "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa",
"uplinkID": "87e26288-8465-40d1-bb3c-755befe063b0",
"name": "gateway1",
"time": "2020-03-02T11:27:04Z",
"rssi": -47,
"loRaSNR": 10.2
},
{
"gatewayID": "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa",
"uplinkID": "8e9ca40b-be5f-4d72-96d4-ec5580802c19",
"name": "gateway1",
"time": "2020-03-02T11:27:04Z",
"rssi": -104,
"loRaSNR": 3
}
]
(I removed gps-data).
Is my interpretation correct regarding the old loraserver and what does the gw-metadata mean in chirpstack? Why are there multiple posts from the same gw?
Thanks in advance.
