Does STM32WB supports AOA (angle of arrival) and AOD (angle of departure)?

@Daniel Mårtensson i didnt know about this bluetooth feature, thanks!

So apparently you need an array of antennas.

Yes. Bluetooth have this. At least from Bluetooth 5.1 and above. But not sure if ST have implement it in STM32WB. It would be a great use because AOA and AOD is used in robotics to make it move it self on coordinates.

@Daniel Mårtensson but the STM32WB doesnt have an array of antennas, maybe AoD could be implemented?

It's up to ST if they want that.

Se @Remi QUINTIN answer.
