We have been using nrf24l01+ for sending few bytes between one Master(Master MCU board) device and many slaves(slave MCU boards). Each time Master Device queries data from a single slave which other slaves ignore as they have different addresses, like this Master queries data one by one from all slaves. In this kind of implementation, we have seen unexpected packets drops some times, even when devices are in close range. First we thought range was problem, so power amplifier(PA +LNA) chip was used with better antenna to extend range. With this setup range was increased but drops were still observed. I was under impression, that i don't need to worry about avoiding TX mode for more than 4ms , as Shockburst mode handles that part. But now am i doubtful about that. Please give me some pointers on what could be the reason for drops apart from range issues. (Could it be lot of interference because of 5-6 nrf devices in vicinity or 4ms TX rule) ?
