channel number of received advertisements

I am interested in the nRF52840 chip. Is it possible to get the channel number / frequency, on which an advertisement has been received.

best regards!

  • You will need to write the code in the Mesh SDK to do that at the bearer level, i.e. send the SCAN_REQ and get the SCAN_RSP to make it an active scanner. It is however possible if you have the understanding of the hardware RADIO peripheral and an understanding of the TimeSlot API.

    You would extend the existing scanner and also use the existing broadcaster as a reference for the RADIO and Timeslot code.

    Edit: You can remove most of the Mesh code base as the bearer part is fairly small. The softdevice and SDK examples can be used side by side to the active scanner.
