How to use radio in MPSL timeslots

[devtester]

Hello,

Using NCS 1.6.1, I would like to use the radio from within a timeslot as suggested in the documentation. However, the MPSL/timeslot sample is quite sparce and only shows how to setup a timeslot, not how to use the radio from within it and I have failed in my attempts.

Is it safe to call for instance nrf_802154_init() and nrf_802154_transmit_raw() when the MPSL_TIMESLOT_SIGNAL_START arrives and until the timeslot ends? Could you please share a code/snippet showing how to properly use 802.15.4 communication from within a timeslot?

Regards, devtester

Hi,

how to properly use 802.15.4 communication from within a timeslot?

The nRF 802.15.4 Radio Driver, or more specifically, the nRF 802.15.4 Service Layer handles this for you. You don't need to use timeslot API for this.
