Also known as LoRa Standard, LoRa Protocol, LoRa Communications, LoRa transceivers

LoRa (from "long range") is a physical proprietary radio communication technique based on spread spectrum modulation. It is used as the physical layer for LoRaWAN, a low-power, wide-area network (LPWAN) protocol that wirelessly connects battery-operated devices to the Internet. LoRa can be thought of as the radio signal technology (similar to Wi-Fi or cellular), while LoRaWAN is the protocol and network architecture that manages communication over that signal.
