How to use AoA and Nordic Distance Measurement library at the same time

Hay.

I am Working on positioning.

I want to use  AoA and Nordic Distance Measurement library.

What SoC do you recommend?

Hi

For Direction Finding (AOA) Only the nRF52833 and nRF5340 is supported. And the nRF5340 is the one with the largest amount of RAM/Flash, which might be a hurdle when combining applications like Mike@PebbleStack points out here. Additionally, you would indeed have to switch between the two as you can't run ranging with DM simultaneously as you do an AOA ranging.

It is indeed also worth checking out the channel sounding which is new, and within the Bluetooth specification, although it is only supported by the nRF54L15.

Is there a specific reason you will need both Direction Finding and Distance Measurement for your ranging application?

Best regards,

Simon

Thanks.

Of course.

1. Between tags and locators
We want to know the presence of tags approaching from a specific direction. This can be achieved with one locator.

2. When multiple locators are placed
By knowing the distance between locators, the position of the locator can be identified. This is effective when the locator moves.

We dream of a more advanced system than you can imagine. To achieve this, we need to combine each function.

Even if each function can be realized individually, the dream will not come true.

We would like your cooperation in making our dream come true.
