I was asking about some details in capturing data from smartphone accelerometer. I am using Samsung S5, which has the invensense MPU6500 6-axis chip. The datasheet of the chip indicates a lot of sampling rate/bandwidth options. However, through android we only have few options concerning the sensor delay: SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST, SENSOR_DELAY_GAME, SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL and SENSOR_DELAY_UI.
I need to know two things: 1) the sampling rate accuracy and 2) the bandwidth. What I concluded so far is that the sampling rate for certain setting is not exactly fixed, it is fluctuating around certain number, for example the fastest setting nominal sampling rate is 200Hz, but the sampling time will be 4~6 msec. The sensor provides time stamp with each sample with 1msec resolution. My questions are: 1) How far the timestamp is accurate, or in other words how much error I need to assume in the sample timing? 2) What are the associated bandwidth with each SENSOR_DELAY setting? because according to the chip datasheet, the bandwidth is not related to the sampling rate. The bandwidth will be known if we can get how android program the sensor chip with each of delay settings.
