CC2640: CC1310: Contiki mesh network with frequency hopping in cc1310

Part Number: CC2640

Hi!

I was trying to employ contiki-NG with frequency hopping(TSCH) in cc1310 platform.

Since the examples provided in contiki NG for  6TiSCH supports only few hardware which exclude cc1310, I tried to work the "simple node" example on cc2640.

I get an issue with flashing on uniflash  :make TARGET=srf06-cc26xx BOARD=cc2640R2 node.bin

>>

../../arch/platform/srf06-cc26xx/Makefile.srf06-cc26xx:31: ../../arch/cpu/cc26xx-cc13xx/Makefile.: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target '../../arch/cpu/cc26xx-cc13xx/Makefile.'.  Stop.

Thank you!

    As I know, Contiki doesn’t support CC2640. It only supports CC2650 and CC1310/CC1350.

    Hi Yi Kai!

    I was following the Github documentation :-TSCH-and-6TiSCH.
    The "simple node" program was successfully flashed on cc1310.

    But my problem is, in the documentation, they specify the TSCH is not supported in cc1310.
    Even I checked the make file and it says:
    BOARDS_EXCLUDE = srf06/cc13xx launchpad/cc1310 launchpad/cc1350 sensortag/cc2650 sensortag/cc1350

    Is it possible to proceed with cc1310 with the development so far in TSCH.

    Thank you!

    Unless you will implement TSCH-and-6TiSCH on CC1310 by yourself otherwise you can't.

    I am disappointed that the cc26xx 'ieee-mode' support for Contiki TSCH has not been implemented in/ ported to the cc13xx 'prop-mode' driver.  

    Industrial IoT and Smart City applications will not be deployed on 2.4 GHz networks; Sub-GHz is where it's at.

    This has been an on-going issue for support for TI's cc13xx platforms for Contiki/NG.

    What do we need to do here to get TI to finish the job?  

    With the up and coming cc13x2 devices, and the maturing of Contiki/NG, I see an emerging global platform for Industrial/Smart City IoT - that has the security and resiliency chops to actually work in the real world.

    Hi Evan,

    I want to make it clear that all development of Contiki-NG is driven by the Contiki-NG community, as it is an open-source, community-driven project. Therefore, Contiki-NG relies on community contributions for project development.

    Regarding TSCH support for prop_mode, it is feasible to port TSCH for prop_mode, however, this is not something that has been done yet to my knowledge. I would suggest asking the Contiki-NG developers community what the current status is regarding TSCH support for prop_mode: gitter.im/.../Developers

    and I had raised an issue in Contiki-NG and it's on roadmap. You can refer to github.com/.../496

    Hi Edvard,

    Thank you for responding, this is a good step forward.  I will be working closer with TI to get fuller support on the current as well as the new CC13x2 line of MCUs.  The developer(s) that did the first port as well as the example applications did an outstanding job and I believe they were TI staff. 

    BTW I may take on this work myself, with your assistance as necessary.  I will let you know what I need.

    Best,

    Evan
