CC1101: Receiver sensitivity measurement environment

Part Number: CC1101
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SMARTRFTRXEBK

Hello experts,

My customer want to measure receiver sensitivity with CC1101.

Could you tell me which tool and software are needed for receiver sensitivity measurement?

For example, they send signal from SG(signal generator) and receive the signal with TI device, and they measure CLK and DATA from TI device with bit error meter.

Thanks and best regards,

Ryo Akashi

I have covered some suggestions on how to measure sensitivity in https://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/swra603

Note that it's preferred to measure PER (and calculate BER if needed based on PER)

Hello TER-san,

Thank you for your reply. PER means Pocket Error Rate?

Also, could you tell me which EVM in TI.com should we use for CC1101 measurement? SMARTRFTRXEBK and SmartRF studio are suitable hardware/software configuration?
