Zigbee < - > BTLE beacon reciver

[richcj10]

Hi,

I am a EE with a lot of background in nRF52 devices. But this is my first software venture with this device. I am familiar with the soft stacks used and have flashed devices for particular tests etc. (FCC testing for example) 

But, I was wondering if there was a soft device package that had Zigbee stack and BTLE stack for beacon RSSI strength reading. I want to wake the device up with motion and send out a beacon ID that has the best RSSI over ZigBee. I have the ZigBee portion started. 

Is this possible? Or will I need two different radios? 

Thanks,

Richard Johnson

Hi,

We have a stack with support for Zigbee/BLE multiprotocol operation. See the nRF5 SDK for Thread and Zigbee: https://www.nordicsemi.com/Software-and-tools/Software/nRF5-SDK-for-Thread-and-Zigbee

I recommend you read through the documentation about multiprotocol support and try out one of the multiprotocol examples in the SDK:

• https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_tz_v4.1.0/ble_154_multiprotocol.html v
• https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fsdk_tz_v4.1.0%2Fble_154_multiprotocol.html

API for RSSI measurements in Zigbee: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_tz_v4.1.0/group__nrf__802154__rssi.html

Best regards,
