By nature, LoRaWAN is a distributed antenna system. you can deploy as much gateways you want, no worry about overlapping each other. All the gateways act as a cooperative receiver system, all listening in the same frequencies. The network server manages all the gateways: de-duplicates duplicated uplink frames and chooses the right gateway to use for downlinks.

For outdoor high towers you can use high capacity, macro gateways, even with three sectorial antennas. For indoor you can use cheap micro gateways.
