ANT Forum

Hi DSI Team,

Hope you are doing well.

We are interested in going ahead with the FCC regulatory RF testing for our new line of pod products. We are using the 310 stack on the device and would like to use the CW testing APIs for certification.

May we get details on what the CW API entails upon usage. For example, is it more of a Constant Carrier or a Modulated Carrier test? Usually, is it sufficient for FCC testing?

Thanks,
Vipin      

Hi Vipin,

The ANT CW (Continue Wave) test mode puts the radio into non-modulated carrier mode. Details on this mode can be found in the ANT Message Protocol and Usage Document.

This example from Nordic's nRF51 SDK gives a detailed look at the radio testing capabilities on the nRF51:
