how can we use bluetooth and rf in one project ?is it possible to switch between bluetooth and rf?

[pallavi]

Hello,

one of my project requirement is that i can accept data via bluetooth and rf. i want to know can we use bluetooth and rf in same code. the switching between bluetooth and rf is possible? because both are working on the same frequrency 2.4 GHz.and if it is possible then i want to know how?please tell me how we can use rf code in ble.actually i am receiving rf data from the arduino+nrf24l01 and from bluetooth also. sepetrately i have received data from bluetooth and rf in NRF51822 but now my requirement is that i can also reveive data from bluetooth and rf in one code. so please tell how this switching possible.and if anyone had done this then tell m this concept in detail how to impliment it.

Thank you,

Pallavi

Yes, in general it is possible, Nordic BLE stack (aka Soft Device) provides so-called "timeslot API" which allows you to overtake RADIO and other peripheral for certain time and use it e.g. for other RF technology then BLE. See examples in SDK and explanation in SD specification.

will you please tell me which examples are provided in sdk so that i can test it. Actually i want to ask that can i use radio library directly in the ble_app_uart? if not then please tell me what can i use or which code i have to refer for using radio(esb-prx) in ble_app_uart.

Waiting for reply,

Pallavi
