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

2008-05-28 Thread salvatore galati
hi all. I'm a student and I'm working on WSN with telosb motes and I'm using TinyOs 2.x. Telosb motes uses cc2420 Radio Stack , so i want to exstimate the maximum transmission time for a packet of 28 bytes ( max payload lenght) i think that the total transmission time depends on: time to transmit

i have a question. Why do CC2420 need to wait for hardware ACK for such a log time? It should be very fast. On 5/28/08, Jongkeun Na <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Wed, May 28, 2008 at 2:06 AM, salvatore galati <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > >> ack wait time of 256 jiffies = 3,84 msec >> >> > is
