+LoRaWAN
+=======
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This application shows a simple use case of LoRaWAN with RIOT.
+
+By using the real time clock and low-power capabilities of a board, this
+application shows how to program a LoRaWAN Class A devices using RIOT.
+
+This application is using the Over-The-Air Activation procedure.
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+Simply build and flash the application for a ST B-L072Z-LRWAN1 board:
+
+    make flash term
+
+Use the `BOARD`, `DRIVER` and `REGION` make variables to adapt the application
+to your hardware setup and region of use:
+
+- `BOARD` can be one of the nucleo-64 boards
+- `DRIVER` can be either `sx1276` or `sx1272`
+- `REGION` can be `EU868`, `US915`, etc (see LoRaWAN regional parameters for
+  details).
+
+ST Nucleo-64 can be used with an mbed LoRa shield: there's one based on
+[the sx1276 radio](https://os.mbed.com/components/SX1276MB1xAS/) and one based
+on the [the sx1272 radio](https://os.mbed.com/components/SX1272MB2xAS/).
+
+Finally, to join a LoRaWAN network using OTAA activation, edit the application
+`Makefile` and set your device information:
+
+    DEVEUI ?= 0000000000000000
+    APPEUI ?= 0000000000000000
+    APPKEY ?= 00000000000000000000000000000000
