2.9. LoRa RF Characteristics
2.9.1 Transmitter RF Characteristics
The RAK2287 has an excellent transmitter performance. It is highly recommended to use an
optimized configuration for the power level configuration, which is part of the HAL. This
results in a mean RF output power level and current consumption.
Frequency Range Transmit Power Modulation
923.3-927.5 MHz 13.39dBm LoRa / FSK

2.9.2 Receiver RF Characteristics
It is highly recommended, to use optimized RSSI calibration values, which is part of the HAL
v3.1. For both, Radio 1 and 2, the RSSI-Offset should be set -169.0. The following table
gives typically sensitivity level of the RAK2287.
Signal Bandwidth / [KHz] Spreading Factor Sensitivity / [dBm]
