KW36 RSSI tracing and monitoring demonstration system of multiple BLE connections

KW36 RSSI tracing and monitoring demonstration system of multiple BLE connections

The KW36/35/34 is an ultra-low power, highly integrated single-chip family that enables Bluetooth Low Energy version 5 and Generic FSK (at 250, 500 and 1000 kbps) connectivity for automotive, industrial and medical embedded systems. KW36/35/34 integrates an Arm® Cortex®-M0+ CPU, up to 512 KB Flash and 64 KB SRAM, Bluetooth LE and Generic FSK hardware Link Layers and peripherals optimized to meet the requirements of the target applications. KW36/35/34 supports up to 8 simultaneous Bluetooth LE connections as either a master, a slave or any combination. The KW36 includes an integrated FlexCAN module enabling seamless integration into an automotive or industrial CAN communication network. The FlexCAN module can support CAN’s flexible data-rate (CAN FD) protocol for increased bandwidth and lower latency. The Kinetis KW36A/35A/34A MCUs feature AEC Q100-Grade 2 temperature range qualification while the KW36Z/35Z feature and Industrial qualification.

As more and more car OEM are considering to use phone as the car key, which need to localize the driver’s position, most customers prefer to use RSSI based solution as it can be supported by current phone directly, while PDE and AOA is not compatible with current phone. Common RSSI Localization method is acquiring advertising channels, It’s easy, but it is hard to make authentication, can be attacked easily and have low anti-interference ability as it only have 3 channels. So customers are asking for a new method to monitor the data channels with hopping. This demonstration system implement data channel’s RSSI tracing and monitoring of 4 BLE connections at the same time, and designed a GUI to simplify the steps to setup the demo system, and view the result visually.
