Can i Advertise a specific pattern over air using nrf51422 ?

Is there any way that can allow the user to advertise a sine wave for example over a specific channel or over the three Radio channels ? I am using S130 and Nordic SDK 8.1

OK, now I think I understand roughly what kind of things you want to do. Have a look at the Direct Test Mode example in our SDK. In one of the tests it sets up a constant carrier signal.

Well, you could use the manufacturers specific data in the advertising packet to contain any data you would want within the size limits of the advertising packet. You could use radio notifications or a timer to know when to update the data in the advertising packet to drive the representation of your sine wave.

So, yes I think it could be done. Although I'm not sure how you will know that the scanner device is forwarding enough of the advertising packets to your application to read it correctly.
