Question

Evaluating RF range and penetration of the STM32WB Module

Hello.

I have a task to evaluate RF range and penetration of the STM32WB based module. We plan to migrate from Microchip module to STM32WB5MMG module.

The +6dBm output power of the ST module is a bit concerning compared to +20dBm we had from Microchip.

What is the best way to make an evaluation and field testing using P-NUCLEO-WB55

pack ?

I have installed all the STM32WB ecosystem and even managed to brick one of the Nucleo boards. But still have one board and two USB dongles operating.

Thanks.

I'm back to evaluation. Can anyone please help me pointing to the right way to do it?

How can I take P-NUCLEO-WB55 Board and Dongle and make a communication test between these devices?

Thanks.

OK.

I have found a CubeMonitor-RF presentation that explains how to run PER test on BLE devices.

Presentation also states that it is possible to run PER test on 802.15.4 devices.

For BLE case there is a BLE_TransparentMode FW application. What should I do for 802.15.4 case? What Stack and what FW should be run?

Thanks.
