Doesn't look like it. The nRF51822 uses Frequency Shift Keying as its modulation method. IEEE802.15.4 uses Phase Shift Keying.

We unfortunately don't have any IEEE 802.15.4 chips, so implementing 6LoWPAN as-is is not possible.

IETF is working on it : http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6lowpan-btle-12

Do you know which Nordic chip could be suitable to implement 6lowpan protocol stack? Thanks.

Thanks for quick response. I noticed the difference now.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know, 6LoWPAN is specifically made to transmit IPv6 packets over IEEE802.15.4 networks. IEEE802.15.4 use a different radio architecture than the nRF51822, and therefore it is not possible to be part of such networks with it.

There have however been other projects aiming to solve the problem of transmitting IPv6 over Bluetooth low energy, and although I don't have any experience with any of them, it might be worth having a look at.
