nrf51 BTLE frequency hopping certification

Hi,

I have been tasked of developing a custom BTLE test software for nrf51822 for purpose of certification.

The lab is asking for a custom test that ignores the pairing state and transmit continuously in hopping mode.

I trying to develop this test software using SD130 and ble_central/ble_app_uart_c from nrf_SDK_10. But I can't seen to achieve transmission on hopping mode withou pairing two devices first.

So, is there anyway to transmit data in hopping mode using SD130 without pairing?

Any help would be apreciated , Thanks!

  • Yes, SD needs valid peer to operate Link Layer (as it is BT LE certified it's kind of logical that it doesn't provide non-standard feature). Footnote: I went through several BTSIG and FCC certifications and I've never seen such request. If it is some usual certification like one of these then I would challange the lab why exactly they demand this (what criteria/limit they want to test by this) and I would crosscheck with some trusted reference.
