  • Not interested in the nRF52840 then?

    Dev kit from Nordic and third party modules now on the market, if you're not into certifying your own layout.

  • Does nRF52840 have BLE 5.1 features ?

    Since mentions nRF52811, maybe it's the range-finding features (s)he's specifically interested in...?

    There isn't a devkit for nRF52811 yet, and the software support isn't complete, either.

    You should discuss this with your tutors - it's possible that nothing will be available in your time-frame, so you may need to reconsider ...

    my project plan is bluetooth 5.1

    That's not a project plan! That's just mentioning a technology that you intend to use.

    If you gave a description of your goal - what you're actually trying to achieve - people may be able to make better suggestions.

  • It may well be that they wish to use direction finding, but as you point out just selecting 5.1 as their plan isn't going to get them very far. 

    The one point to bear in mind is that some of the 5.1 improvements over 5.0 will be down to the SoftDevice and as yet I don't think Nordic have a certified 5.1 stack, neither is there any development kit for the 28511, so the point is moot.

    The 52840 includes support for Bluetooth 5.0, with a certified stack and third party, certified, modules are now in the market place. I couldn't say whether it is capable of full 5.1 support given the right software stack.

    As you point out the basis for any project is to not only decide upon what you what to achieve, but determine whether it is realistic given the hardware available. 

    I would also point out that if the intention is to test or interface this project with a mobile app. then the limiting factor for the supported Bluetooth standard will be the smartphone.
