CC2642R: How to run Bluetooth SIG PTS for conformance test on the Simple Peripheral example

CC2640R2F: RF-PHY Testing for blestack simple_peripheral project

Part Number: CC2640R2F
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BLE-STACK

Good day!  I am looking into Bluetooth-SIG RF-PHY testing for a custom project (based on simple_peripheral, using BLE-Stack from SDK 5.30.00.03) under QDID 135680.

Several questions were raised in working through the process:

  1. Host Test Settings -- SWRA601H (https://www.ti.com/lit/an/swra601h/swra601h.pdf) specifies that the host_test project can be used for SIG testing, assuming it utilizes the same "protocol stack and radio configuration."  How would I compare protocol stack and radio configurations between projects? Which parameters or settings need to be identical?
  2. RF-PHY Features -- A test lab asked which RF-PHY features we are supporting, and provided the following list.  Which features does the BLE-Stack simple_peripheral project support, or which parameters should I check to confirm our feature set?

    1. LE Transmitter

    2. LE Receiver

    3. LE 2M PHY

    4. Stable Modulation Index -Transmitter

    5. Stable Modulation Index -Receiver

    6. LE Coded PHY (Long Range)

Thanks for the help!  I am new to Bluetooth, and did not originally develop the project, so there is a definite learning curve.

    Hi Kenton,

    1- Assuming you are using the same stack (or SDK) version and the same hardware, you can consider host_test and simple_peripheral example utilize the same "protocol stack and radio configuration."

    2- You should check with the system designers which features are used. I mean, when configured to do so, the BLEStack can support all the features you have mentioned.

    I hope this will help,

    Best regards,

    Thank you, Clément!  This is helpful.

    Regarding point 2 -- assuming the simple_peripheral project is unmodified, which of the above features are enabled? (note: we are using blestack, not bles5tack)

    I was also wondering where I would look in the documentation for information regarding RF-PHY related settings (particularly those that may impact qualification).

    Thanks again!

    Hi,

    In the simple_peripheral project for blestack, the features LE Transmitter and LE Receiver are used. With that being said, I cannot be certain your project does use the same features.

    Please make sure to consult your Bluetooth Qualification Consultant (BQC) for any additional guidance. 

    Best regards,

    Thanks again, Clément!

    I am wondering... how would I set the additional features (2M PHY, SMI, Coded PHY) in the blestack simple_peripheral project (if that is possible)?  Is there a particular area of the documentation I would reference for RF-PHY related settings that may impact qualification?
