Maximize data transfer rate

[jswcomkr]

Hi. I'm developing solution for vehicle driving data gathering system.

Our customer want to get the driving data for 1000/s.

So, I was developed hardware and software, but I get only 420~440 data per seconds.

My connectino parameter is as follow:

conn_params.min_conn_interval = 8;	
conn_params.max_conn_interval = 16;	
conn_params.slave_latency     = 0;	
conn_params.conn_sup_timeout = 500;	

PHY is AUTO.

How can I maximize data transfer rate?

Hi,


What is the unit of your result?

It seems to be a byte but I am not sure what is the unit of your number.

There are multiple factors for achieving maximum throughput such as connection interval, datarate, packet size, packet type, etc...

If you are using nRF52 devices both central and peripheral, it can be reached out to around 1.3~1.4Mbps.

There is an example in nRF5 SDK that measuring through between nRF5 DKs.

I recommend you check this example first.

Also, this post can be helped you for understanding the details

If you are using a mobile device such as Android/iPhone for the central device, it might not be achieved 1.3Mbps due to there is a limitation in setting the minimum CI.
