To reduce the power consumption from the tracker I will like to use a low energy design provide by Semtech (AN1200.17) using the channel activity detection (CAD) of the radio. I am not very proficient in programming so perhaps I am missing something or doing something incorrect, but I am not able to detect the preambles. I have also asked this in GrumpyOldPizza/ArduinoCore-stm32l0 repository but without replies, so sorry for duplicate the question. I am using two simple programs, one to send a message with a long preamble (10 seconds) and another implementing the CAD function; Preamble send `#include "LoRaRadio.h" #define myLed 13 void setup( void ) { Serial.begin(115200); pinMode(myLed, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(myLed, LOW); LoRaRadio.begin(865200000); LoRaRadio.setFrequency(865200000); LoRaRadio.setTxPower(14); LoRaRadio.setPreambleLength (300); LoRaRadio.setBandwidth(LoRaRadio.BW_125); LoRaRadio.setSpreadingFactor(LoRaRadio.SF_12); LoRaRadio.setCodingRate(LoRaRadio.CR_4_5); LoRaRadio.setLnaBoost(true); delay (2000); } void loop( void ) { unsigned long previous = millis (); digitalWrite(myLed, HIGH); LoRaRadio.beginPacket(); LoRaRadio.write(1); LoRaRadio.endPacket(); while (LoRaRadio.busy()); unsigned long last = millis (); last -= previous; Serial.println (last); digitalWrite(myLed, LOW); delay(3000); }` CAD `#include "LoRaRadio.h" bool CadDone; bool CadDetected; void setup( void ){ Serial.begin(115200); LoRaRadio.begin(865200000); LoRaRadio.setFrequency(865200000); LoRaRadio.setTxPower(14); LoRaRadio.setBandwidth(LoRaRadio.BW_125); LoRaRadio.setSpreadingFactor(LoRaRadio.SF_12); LoRaRadio.setCodingRate(LoRaRadio.CR_4_5); LoRaRadio.setLnaBoost(true); LoRaRadio.onCad(CADcallback); } void loop( void ){ CadDone = false; CadDetected = false; Serial.print ("Caddone: "); Serial.println (CadDone); unsigned long cadinit = millis (); LoRaRadio.cad (); while (LoRaRadio.busy()); unsigned long cadend = millis (); Serial.print ("Caddone: "); Serial.println (CadDone); Serial.print ("CadDetected: "); Serial.println (CadDetected); cadend -= cadinit; Serial.print ("Cad length: "); Serial.println (cadend); Serial.println (); delay (1500); } void CADcallback (void){ CadDone = true; CadDetected = LoRaRadio.cadDetected (); }` I am quite that the CAD is executing because the the caend-cadinit lenght is the same as the estimated time in the LoRa calculator by Semtech but the program is not able to detect the preambles by using LoRaRadio.cadDetected () function. Any help would be greatly welcome, thanks in advance! — You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
