throughput evaluation

Hi, 

I have an implementation in which two boards communicates through ble and i want to measure the throughput of both. The behaviour that I see is that increasing the connection interval the reciver has a really fast throughput, but the transmitter throughput is slow. How is it possible and what can I do to increase the throughput of my transmitter. Thanks in advance

  • Hi Manuel

    Not sure what you mean about receiver and transmitter. Would the receiver be the central device, and the transmitter the peripheral? 

    What kind of packet size do you use when transmitting your data? 

    Approximately how fast is the throughput for either device? 

    In principle the throughput should be similar for both, if you have the same data length, MTU and PHY used in each direction. 

    If we are unable to figure out the problem in other ways it would be helpful to get a sniffer trace of each test, then it should be obvious what the limitation is. 

    Best regards
