Issue: We need to add lora functionality layer on Yocto for RAK2287.
Setup: We have custom board with Jetson nano as microprocessor and also has minipci slot where RAK2287 is going to fit.
Server: LoRaWAN server
Details: We using custom board having Jetson Nano as processor and we are using RAK2287 for lora connectivity & we need to integrate all that lorawan communication into Yocto.
To be honest with you, I don’t think anybody is able to help you with this. What you are requesting is almost a complete project on its own. As a reference, it took me weeks to implement the ChirpStack Gateway OS which is basically:
Yocto layer
Raspberry Pi BSP layer
ChirpStack layer
LoRa HAL recipes
ChirpStack packages
Additional packages
Getting the GNSS module to work correctly to me quite some time. For the Rapsbery Pi I had to free the UART port, as it is also used by the bluetooth module. After that, I had to make some adjustments to the u-boot bootloader, to not use the UART port because the output would go to the GNSS module, but also the GNSS module output would interrupt the boot process.
I think you can take many ChirpStack Gateway OS recipes as example, but expect that it will take you quite some time to achieve a full working Yocto build. The community here is happy to help you with ChirpStack related questions, but I think what you are asking is a bit out of scope.
There are several books that might help you to get familiar with Yocto (I don’t remember which book I read). Then of course there is the Yocto documentation: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/.
Hi @brocaar,
I’ve already started with LoRaWAN layer but while installing rak & chirpstack. I’m facing some of issues related to dependencies, to resolve those issues could you please provide me -
