Hi,
As part the CE pre-certification of our product that uses a WiLink8 module, we would like to do BLE hopping test. I referred the "SWRU303B_WL18xx_VS_Specific_HCI_Cmds.pdf" but did not find any reference on BLE hopping test. I got the document "TI_BLE_Vendor_Specific_HCI_Guide.pdf". It mentions about the command " HCI Extension Modem Hop Test Tx command". We executed it as follows:
root@localhost:~# hciconfig hci0 down
root@localhost:~# hciconfig hci0 up
root@localhost:~# hcitool cmd 0x3f 0x188
< HCI Command: ogf 0x3f, ocf 0x0188, plen 0
> HCI Event: 0x0e plen 4
01 88 FD 00
root@localhost:~# hcitool cmd 0x3f 0x009
< HCI Command: ogf 0x3f, ocf 0x0009, plen 0
> HCI Event: 0x0e plen 4
01 09 FC 01
The result shows that the commands were executed successfully, but we did not see any signal on the spectrum analyzer.
The questions are:
1) Are we referring to the right document?
2) Are we using the right command in the right format?
3) If not, is there any alternate command for doing BLE hopping test?
4) Is it possible to control the duty cycle of the transmitted signal during continuous transmit test? If so, how to do this?
5) We also tried the command " HCI Extension Modem Test Tx" as mentioned in the document, but could not find any signal on the spectrum analyzer. Please let me know if we were using the right command.
Thanks,
Sharaf
