CC3220MODA: RSSI strength for each channel

Hitoshi Sugawara

Part Number: CC3220MODA

Hi Champs,

Our customer would like to know the RSSI strength for each channel simultaneously to find out the lower power channel in the area.

Do we have a such feature available with CC3220MODA?
If not, i would like to know any alternatives.

Best regards,
Hitoshi

    Hi Hitoshi ,

    Yes, for this purpose can be used API sl_WlanGetNetworkList(). It returns list of found networks including RSSI. You customer can by this way read RSSI and select best channels for their AP mode.

    But do not forgot that this way may not work at all cases. ISM band 2.4GHz is shared with many other wireless technologies. It may happened that some channel will not be occupied by WLAN but communication will be still problematic of this channel. Because this frequency range will be occupied by some other wireless technology. Here is a advantage of new dual band CC3235 (2.4 + 5).
