We would like to use the nRF52 for an indoor application that should cover a a single family home.
The requirements for throughput are very relaxed, so we'd like to trade speed for increased range.
Is there any way to do this using the nrf52382 ?

Yo.
You can do this if you do not use Bluetooth Low energy, but some proprietary protocol.
If you for example use ESB (Enhanced ShockBurst), you can lower your bitrate to achieve better range.
Covering a family home might still be hard though, but you can always create some repeater devices :)
Thanks for your replies. We are building a wireless sensor node. Therefore, a bidirectional link is not needed. We could only broadcast/advertise. Would that restriction give us a possibility to lower the bitrate and get to where we want?
