Hi,
I'm using the example projects "ble_peripheral/ble_app_uart" "ble_central/ble_app_uart_c" in SDK10.0.0 to test data throughput.
I'm sending 20bytes of payload. But I'm only able to send about 13 packets/s when sending from S110 peripheral to S120 central.
But i get about 130 packets/s when i'm sending from the S110 peripheral to my Android phone.
I have set MIN_CONN_INTERVAL to 7.5ms on both peripheral and central. I'm not handling any UART input data or sending out any data from the UART.
What could be causing the S120 central to slow the link down by 10x compared to the Android phone?
I have attached packet sniffer log from the two scenarios:
-
Link from S110 peripheral to S120 central: nrf51_s110_to_s120_speed_test.pcapng
-
Link from S110 peripheral to android phone: nrf51_s110_to_android_speed_test.pcapng
I'm sending packets from the S110 peripheral using this code in main:
for (;;)
{
while(clear_to_send)
{
err_code = ble_nus_string_send(&m_nus, testdata, 20);
if(err_code == BLE_ERROR_NO_TX_BUFFERS)
{
clear_to_send = false;
} else {
testdata[0] = (cnt++&0x3)+'0';
}
}
power_manage();
}
Clear to send setting: (From devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../)
static void ble_evt_dispatch(ble_evt_t * p_ble_evt)
{
ble_conn_params_on_ble_evt(p_ble_evt);
ble_nus_on_ble_evt(&m_nus, p_ble_evt);
on_ble_evt(p_ble_evt);
ble_advertising_on_ble_evt(p_ble_evt);
bsp_btn_ble_on_ble_evt(p_ble_evt);
if(p_ble_evt->header.evt_id == BLE_EVT_TX_COMPLETE || p_ble_evt->header.evt_id == BLE_GAP_EVT_CONNECTED)
{
clear_to_send = true;
}
}
