Hi TI WiFi Support,
I just saw the following post (http://e2e.ti.com/support/wireless_connectivity/f/307/t/371006.aspx), and we are right now having a problem with the CCA feature for 5GHz channel for WL1283 (wilink7), but thought I would mention above link, as I guess problems might be related.
What we see is that the CCA feature is working fine for he 2.4GHz band, but that it's stopping transmission about 10dB too late for the 5Ghz band, compared to what should be expected. Based on that standard (http://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/301800_301899/301893/01.07.00_40/en_301893v010700o.pdf) we for transmission with around 18dBm should stop transmission at an input power of -73dBm+23dBm-18dBm = -68dBm, but it seem that module first react around -60dBm regardless which setting we try to change (unless we just until now haven't found the proper setting of cause?).
We use standard TI OMAP4 Android 4AJ2.5P2 Jellybean release (http://www.omappedia.com/wiki/4AJ.2.5P2_OMAP4_Jelly_Bean_Release_Notes) with the wl12xx driver as well as firmware from this Android package. FW version is "wl128x-fw-4-sr.bin Rev 7.3.10.0.125". We have seen that a never FW ("wl128x-fw-5-sr.bin Rev 7.3.10.0.133") exists (i.e at TI OpenLink), but we don't know if it fixes problem. Likewise it's kind of unclear what it would take to properly upgrade to this one if this is what we need to do?
I hope problem is clear, otherwise please don't hesitate to let me know and I will be happy to clarify further...
Best regards and thanks in advance
Søren
