Re: [Tinyos-help] cc2420 transmission delay ( backoff times)

2008-06-13 Thread renjie huang
i have a question. Why do CC2420 need to wait for hardware ACK for such a
log time? It should be very fast.

 ack wait time of 256 jiffies = 3,84 msec


 isn't one jiffy 32us? if so, the ack wait time should be 8.192ms.

I think it's mainly due to software-ACK and the congestion backoff mentioned
by Phil.

Re: [Tinyos-help] cc2420 transmission delay ( backoff times)

2008-06-13 Thread David Moss
There are no backoffs when transmitting an acknowledgment.  Even if the ack
is transmitted instantaneously to the receiver, it still takes time to
download and process the acknowledgment from the RXFIFO.  

 

The ack wait period was chosen experimentally in an environment with
multiple transmitters.  The more transmitters, the more likely the ack
reception will be delayed by some significant amount.
