DESCRIPTION:This in-person\, project-based workshop will take place at the 
 University of Valladolid within the framework of the IEEE SPCOM Chapter. P
 articipants will design\, assemble and deploy a small LoRa communication n
 etwork using Meshtastic and autonomous solar-powered nodes.\n\nThe program
 me combines the fundamentals of mesh networks and LoRa communications with
  firmware\, channel and security configuration\, messaging and telemetry\,
  and hardware assembly. Practical activities include integrating the solar
  panel\, rechargeable battery and charging electronics\, assembling the no
 de in a weatherproof enclosure\, and conducting functionality and coverage
  tests.\n\nThe workshop is primarily intended for Telecommunications Engin
 eering students. Participants will work in teams of up to four people\, wi
 th a maximum of five teams planned. The final objective is to build functi
 onal solar-powered nodes\, establish an operational Meshtastic network\, a
 nd document its configuration and test results.\n\nSpeaker(s): Luis Franci
 sco Sánchez Turión\n\nAgenda: \n-\nIntroduction to LoRa and Meshtastic: 
 mesh networks\, communication range and node roles.\n\n-\nSoftware and har
 dware: firmware\, channels\, security\, client application and node compon
 ents.\n\n-\nAssembly and configuration of solar-powered nodes.\n\n-\nDeplo
