This dataset was created by a LoRaWAN sniffer and contains packets, which are thoroughly analyzed in the paper Exploring LoRaWAN Traffic: In-Depth Analysis of IoT Network Communications. Data from the LoRaWAN sniffer was collected in four cities: Liege (Belgium), Graz (Austria), Vienna (Austria), and Brno (Czechia).

Gateway ID: b827ebafac000001

  • Uplink reception (end-device => gateway)
  • Only packets containing CRC, inverted IQ
  • RX0: 867.1 MHz, 867.3 MHz, 867.5 MHz, 867.7 MHz, 867.9 MHz – BW 125 kHz and all SF
  • RX1: 868.1 MHz, 868.3 MHz, 868.5 MHz – BW 125 kHz and all SF

Gateway ID: b827ebafac000002

  • Downlink reception (gateway => end-device)
  • Includes packets without CRC, non-inverted IQ
  • RX0: 867.1 MHz, 867.3 MHz, 867.5 MHz, 867.7 MHz, 867.9 MHz – BW 125 kHz and all SF
  • RX1: 868.1 MHz, 868.3 MHz, 868.5 MHz – BW 125 kHz and all SF

Gateway ID: b827ebafac000003

  • Downlink reception (gateway => end-device) and Class-B beacon on 869.525 MHz
  • Includes packets without CRC, non-inverted IQ
  • RX0: 869.525 MHz – BW 125 kHz and all SF, BW 125 kHz and SF9 with implicit header, CR 4/5 and length 17 B

To open the pcap files, you need Wireshark with current support for LoRaTap and LoRaWAN protocols. This support will be available in the official 4.1.0 release. A working version for Windows is accessible in the automated build system.

The source data is available in the log.zip file, which contains the complete dataset obtained by the sniffer. A set of conversion tools for log processing is available on Github. The converted logs, available in Wireshark format, are stored in pcap.zip. For the LoRaWAN decoder, you can use the attached root and session keys. The processed outputs are stored in csv.zip, and graphical statistics are available in png.zip.

This data represents a unique, geographically identifiable selection from the full log, cleaned of any errors. The records from Brno include communication between the gateway and a node with known keys.
