tricks to increase transmission speed
Hello, i setup to use the DW1000 chip with a direct connection to RPi4. Chip is on EVB1000 board. I have 2 boards. Both configured for channel 7, cfg->rate 2, cfg->pulse 2, get pcode 12. Im using iperf3 test program to test UDP connection between boards and best speed that I can achieve is 1Mbit. I want to have 2.5Mbit. Is there some tricks that will help me to increase communication speed?
The dw1000 is designed for very small data volumes with accurate time measurements, rather than for high throughput. The bus-level interface to the dw1000 is very inefficient, and it doesn't hugely surprise me that you can't push much traffic through it.
Question a bit out of this theme. "no calibration sets in device tree" can affect work?
The calibration sets are just a convenience feature that can be used to store tuples of channel/PRF/antenna-delay/transmit-power values in the RPi HAT EEPROM's devicetree blob, so that the user doesn't need to manually configure those values on each boot.
