Does the nRF52832 support coexistence with the nRF9160?

Hi,

We have an existing design that includes the nRF52832 and we would like to add the nRF9160 to the design.  Does the nRF52832 support coexistence with the nRF9160?

If the nRF52832 does support coexistence, which versions of the SoftDevice and nRF5 SDK support coexistence with the nRF9160?

Thanks,

  • There shouldn't be any reason to add coexisistence to the design. The LTE radio will have very strict timing requirements and will always "win" when it has to transmit. In this case, the BLE radio may lose some packets, by should be able to handle that just fine. 

    It's recommended to have a 2.4 GHz band pass filter between the nRF52832 and the antenna to reduce the impact of the LTE transmitter.
