https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/56498/fhss-implementation-in-a-multi-agent-swarmI&#39;m looking at implementing frequency hopping between multiple agents (fully connected swarm) in reasonably close proximity to each other (max distance about 150m in an open environment). I&#39;m looking at the nRF24 chip set. Wondered if anyone had any insightsen-USTelligent Community 13Wed, 15 Jan 2020 12:58:12 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/229217?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 15 Jan 2020 12:58:12 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:43b6376c-532f-4a44-9c36-bf567d67926fovrebekk<p>Hi&nbsp;</p> <p>If you are planning to go to production I would strongly suggest going to the nRF52 platform instead. Then you get a much more integrated solution with more flexibility, lower power consumption and better performance.&nbsp;</p> <p>Regardless of the chipset used I wouldn&#39;t recommend doing frequency jumping in a mesh network, unless you have extensive experience designing RF protocols.&nbsp;<br />Synchronising a frequency hopping scheme over a mesh is very complicated, and is usually avoided in standard mesh implementations. Mesh protocols based on 802.15.4 use a wider band spread spectrum modulation, which means they don&#39;t change the frequency at all, and Bluetooth mesh uses asynchronous packets on the advertising channels which means it doesn&#39;t need to synchronize the frequency changes.&nbsp;</p> <p>Can you give me a bit more details on the application you are looking to implement?</p> <p>For instance, what kind of datarate and latency requirements do you have?</p> <p>Do you need encryption?</p> <p>Best regards<br />Torbjørn</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
