24.3.2 IOCTL
The following command can be given to start the transmission
./ble_transmit <Access_Addr> <pkt_length> <ble_rate> <rx_channel_index> <tx_channel_index>
<scrambler_seed> <no_of_packets> <payload_type> <le_channel_type> <tx_power> <tx_mode>
<hopping_type> <ant_sel> <inter_pkt_gap> <pll_mode> <rf_type> <rf_chain>
After the transmission starts, the following command can be given to stop the transmission.
Please stop the transmission before you start again using the command below :
./ble_transmit 0
24.3.3 Description
Access Address : It is a 32-bit address in hexadecimal format, e.g.,00112233
pkt_length : Length of the packet, in bytes, to be transmitted.
ble_rate : 1Mbps - 1 ,2Mbps - 2 , 125Kbps - 4, 500Kbps - 8
rx_channel_index : Receive channel index, as per the Bluetooth standard.i.e, 0 to 39
tx_channel_index : Transmit channel index, as per the Bluetooth standard. i.e, 0 to 39
scrambler_seed : Initial seed to be used for whitening. It should be set to ‘0’ in order to disable whitening. In order
to enable the whitening scrambler seed should be given, which is used on the receive side.
no_of_packets : Number of packets to be transmitted. It is valid only when the <tx_mode> is set to Burst mode.
payload_type : Type of payload to be transmitted
‘0’ – Payload consists of all zeros
‘1’ – Payload consists of all 0xFF’s
‘2’ – Payload consists of all 0x55’s
‘3’ – Payload consists of all 0xF0’s
‘4’ – Payload consists of PN9 sequence.
le_channel_type : advertising channel - 0 data channel - 1
tx_power : Transmit power value should be between 0 and 18
tx_mode : Burst mode - 0 Continuous mode - 1
hopping_type: no hopping -0 fixed hopping - 1 random hopping - 2
ant_sel : onchip antenna - 2 u.f.l - 3
