CCS/CC2640R2F: Angle of Arrival System with Custom Beacons

Part Number: CC2640R2F
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2650,

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi, I'm currently using CC2640R2F with the boostxl-AoA Angle of Arrival with the AoA Receiver example from the TI Resource Explorer code in code composer studio, and I stumbled across this post  and was wondering what the specific payload would be in order to have the AoA receiver (CC2640R2F + boostxl-AoA) pick up the transmitted beacon signal and calculate angle of arrival. I was also wondering if the CC2650 SensorTag can be used as an AoA sender in relation to the AoA receiver set up.

    Hei Steven,
    You could theoretically use a CC2650 SensorTag as an AoA sender, although we do not currently have any official sample application.

    That's great news knowing that the CC2650 SensorTag has the capability to work as an AoA sender. I noticed this video on the Texas Instrument's youtube profile seen here , and was wondering if the SensorTag in the video was the same as the CC2650 SensorTag. Additionally, I was wondering if there was any unofficial sample application that would be similar to the SensorTag in the video in order to either use or adjust the software to work for the CC2650 SensorTag.

    Hi Steven,

    The AoA functionality in our offering currently only supports the CC2640R2 device, so you cannot run it on a CC2650. I suppose you would have to swap the device. From there on, the software can run on the SensorTag. It even uses the same GPIO for the button trigger.
