README
README.mdLoRa Localization System
This project implements a LoRa-based localization system using RSSI and directional antenna scanning.
📡 Overview
The system detects the direction of a signal source using RSSI values from a LoRa module. A servo motor rotates the antenna, and multiple readings are used for triangulation.
⚙️ Components
- STM32 Microcontroller
- LoRa SX1276 Module
- Servo Motor
- Capacitors & Resistors
🧠 Working
- LoRa receives signal strength (RSSI)
- STM32 processes data
- Servo rotates antenna (PWM control)
- MATLAB estimates location using triangulation
🖥️ Tools Used
- KiCad (PCB Design)
- MATLAB (Simulation)
📊 Output
- RSSI vs Angle graph
- Estimated beacon position
- PCB layout

Questions
What parts does the LoRa Localization System use?
7 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the LoRa Localization System KiCad files?
From the aksh56511/LoRa-Localization-System repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad_/lora_Localization_System.kicad_pcb and its schematic kicad_/lora_Localization_System.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the LoRa Localization System design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask aksh56511 before reusing the design.
