v1.7.0v1.7.0
- Added TX “start delay” compensation for timestamp mode (fix time window alignment issue at low SF and/or high BW) - Added adaptive narrowband/wideband TX filtering for LoRa - Added a command-line option to set CR in util_tx_test - Added notes for TX “start delay” in immediate and triggered mode /!\ warning: due to start delay compensation being implemented, TX that were previously 1.5ms late will be sent on time. At low datarate, this is not an issue. At high LoRa data rate (and FSK) you might have to adjust your timing.

Use the -f option followed by a real number (decimal point and scientific
'E notation' are OK) to specify the modulation central frequency.
+Use the -b option to set LoRa modulation bandwidth in kHz (accepted values: 125,
+250 or 500).

Use the -s option to specify the Spreading Factor of LoRa modulation (values 7
to 12 are valid).
-Use the -b option to set LoRa modulation bandwidth in kHz (accepted values: 125,

+Use the -c option to specify the Coding Rate of LoRa modulation ( 1 = 4/5, 2 =

Use the -p option to set the concentrator TX power in dBm. Not all values are
supported by hardware (typically 14 et 20 dBm are supported, other values might
not give expected power). Check with a RF power meter before connecting any
sensitive equipment.
+Use the -r option to set LoRa preamble size. A minimum preamble length of 6
+symbols is enforced.

+Use the -z option to set the payload size in bytes.
+
Use the -t option to specify the number of milliseconds of pause between
packets. Using zero will result in a quasi-continuous emission.
-Use the -x option to specify how many packets should be sent.
+Use the -x option to specify how many packets should be sent. The value -1 cause

Use the -i option to invert the LoRa modulation polarity.
