engineer.calc/calc · Verify this server

Computes LoRa link SNR margin by comparing received power against the noise floor and the spreading-factor-dependent demodulation threshold from the Semtech SX1276 datasheet. Calculates receiver noise floor from thermal noise (-174 dBm/Hz), channel bandwidth, and receiver noise figure. Returns margin in dB and a boolean link-OK indicator. Use to validate whether a LoRa or Meshtastic link will reliably decode packets. Accepts rx_power from link_budget tool output for end-to-end chain analysis.
