Karo (Raspberry Pi 3 B+)

• WiFi

• Ethernet

• Bluetooth

• Surfstick (Huawei, ZTE)

• SimCon SIM900A (GSM/GPRS)

  • can be used to connect RPi to public server via GPRS (G2, G2.5, G3?)
  • to be reachable from outside a public IP is necessary
  • public APN (IP) is very hard to become at present due to IPv4 addressing limitation. In 2019 Telekom should make IPv6 officially available.

• 433Mhz RF Communication Receiver (RF=Radio Frequency)

• nRF24L01+ 2.4GHz

• 433Mhz RF Communication Transmitter
  • https://www.instructables.com/id/Wireless-communication-Arduino-RF/
  • ESP8266, nRF24L01 and 433MHz module
  • In Europe, the 433MHz, 868MHz and 2.4MHz can be used with limited power
  • For the 433MHz, a transmitter may only transmit during 10% of the time
  • There are good transceiver modules for 433MHz and 2.4GHz. Google for "Sparkfun wireless buying guide" to see a nice list of possibilities. Or check the modules that are supported by the RadioHead library at airspayce.com/mikem.
