Can AoA (connectionless CTE) and PAwR run simultaneously on an ext periodic adv？

[shai735]

   您好，我想在NCS上同时运行AOA和PAwR；但据我所知，CTE和PAwR使用的PDU不同。PAwR使用AUX_Sync_SUBEVENT-IND作为每个子事件的广播包，而根据BLE规范，无连接的CTE（用于AOA定位）只能附加到AUX_Sync-IND或AUX_CHAIN-IND PDU。

   所以我想问一下：我们能否使用两个扩展  周期性广告（  extended periodic adv）在同一个MAC地址下分别运行AOA和Pawr？

   感谢您提出的宝贵建议！

Hi,

You are right that AoA and PAwR cannot be combined in the same advertising set. It should however be possible to use two separate extended advertising sets (one set for AoA which uses connectionless CTE and one set for PAwR).

I do not have an example demonstrating this, but you can see an example of multiple advertising sets in multiple_adv_sets. Note that in prj.conf here, you have
CONFIG_BT_EXT_ADV_MAX_ADV_SET=2.

It should be OK to use the same Bluetooth address but you may need to use separate SID for the two advertising sets so that it is possible to distinguish them (wee an example of that here).

PS: Please ask the question in English, as stated in point 3 in Nordic DevZone Terms of Service.
