Implementation of HDMI cable replacement with WIFI network

[Jtac]

Hello,

  With reference to my previous case 

https://community.nxp.com/t5/Wireless-Connectivity/88W8987-WIFI-Bluetooth-module-interface/td-p/1661...

  I enabled WIFI interface on my Nvidia Jetson TX2 NX platform.

  Normal LAN connection operation are working fine.

  But I want to implement HDMI cable replacement with WIFI network ie nothing but Miracast.

  As 88W8987 is 802.11 ac (WIFI 5) module it should support Miracast.

  Basically to start the functionality I need to enable peer to peer communication.

  As per given reference I enabled peer to peer connection.

  Then I started wpa_cli mode in system.

user@user-desktop:~/bin_wlan$ sudo wpa_cli

See README for more details.

Selected interface 'uap0'

Interactive mode

Interface I select as p2p0

<3>CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-STARTED
> interface p2p0

Connected to interface 'p2p0.

Then I started finding other p2p devices 

> p2p_find
FAIL

But its failing.

When I check SCAN status

> scan
FAIL-BUSY

Its BUSY.

I am trying to connect this module to my mobile or Laptop in wifi direct mode but this module is not visible in there device list.

Please guide me on this.

Hi, @Jtac 

Do you use wpa_supplicant commands before start wpa_cli?

If yes, can you please have a try with below wpa_supplicant_p2p.conf file and below commands? I just tested on my 88W9098, it works fine.

Hi, @Jtac 

Hope you are doing well~

Do you have any change to try my solutions?

If have any problem, please feel free to contact me.

Regards,

Christine.

Hello Christine,

     Sorry for delayed response.

     Actually I was rechecking our Nvidia systems wpa supplicant configurations.Its slightly different from iMX platform. After rechecking all the configuration  I again gone through whole procedure from  your given manual UM11490 (page 25).

    I carefully redo all the steps in the manual and successfully able to make p2p connection between my CM358 module and another linux laptop.

    Please check attached  log16062023_MOD document.

    Now when I  try to find the device on both side using "p2p_find" command, both devices are visible on other side.

<3>CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-STARTED

   Even I can able to connect device to each other using "p2p_connect" command.

> p2p_connect 0c:d2:92:e3:90:0f pbc go_intent=1 freq=2412
OK

  I have to give same command with each others MAC ID on both the systems.

  There is issue come.

   On module side as soon as I gave "p2p_connect" command I got following log.

  Do you have any clue on this, why laptop shows like this?

  I am also trying to find solution on this.

  Thanks for support.

Hi, @Jtac 

From your given info, I see that AW-CM358 module works fine as GC and laptop as GO.

But on your laptop, the status shows "disconnect", it is not normal.

Can you please help to check with another reference device working in p2p mode to connect your laptop, then we can know whether the issue is from laptop or AW-CM358?

Best regards,

Christine.

Hello Christine,

    Sorry for delayed reply.

    As per your suggestion I tried to check all the possible combination.

    I have tried following combination.

    1) Laptop to Laptop p2p connection.

       Its successful and on both side it shows successful connection.

       Please check attached document wpa_cli_20_06_2023_laptop_to_laptop.txt

       After connect command if we check status on both side it shows DISCONNECTED but if we quit session and again restart session and recheck status then it shows new common bssid.

     2) Laptop to module p2p connection.

        This is not successful yet.  It shows FORMATION ERROR.

       Please check attached document wpa_cli_21_06_2023_module_to_laptop.txt and wpa_cli_21_06_2023_laptop_to_module.txt

    3) module to module p2p connection.

        This is also not successful yet. It shows same FORMATION ERROR as previous case.

         Please check attached document wpa_cli_log_module_to_module.txt

         It look like I am missing some configuration on module side. 

         I am working on that, if you have any suggestion then please let me know.

   Thanks.

Hi,@Jtac,

Thanks for you trying.

Can you please help to check whether the P2P function is working fine or not? I prefer to know whether is a “status” displaying issue or the P2P function is also not working.

At the same time, I will also try on my side to check whether we have any other different configurations and observations.

Best regards,

Christine.

Hello Christine,

    Today I tried few more iterations.

    Actually I tried module and Laptop communication. I just gone through given document and it works.

   Now the peer to peer connection between the module and Laptop is established.

   Please check the attached documents.

   Things are proper. 

   Thanks a lot for support and documentation.

   But there is one issue during this set up.

   When we run these commands according to given documentation things work properly.

   But one thing I have observed that, when we make some mistakes in wpa_cli commands and due to that if connection lost then we can not able to connect it back to the module.

    As something goes wrong during wpa_cli setup then module always goes continuously in GROUP FORMATION ERROR.

   Please check attached fail log.

   In this case we cant able regain the connection with module.

   There are only two way we can regain the connection.

   1) Reflash our Nvidia SOM. 

   2) Change intent number in connect command. 

    As this document guide us to establish peer to peer communication with the module, but I can not found any command to disconnect or reset peer to peer communication.

     I tried wpa_cli disconnect command but that is also not working.

     If you have any clue let me know.

Thanks.

Hi, @Jtac 

Great job!
Could you also help to provide the original correct and mistake original configurations, I prefer to know which parameter is different. It will help to track the root cause.Thanks again for your trials.

Best regards,

Christine.

Hello Christine,

   Thanks for reply.

    Actually there are multiple reason for failing p2p connection.

    When client request for connection to GO(station) and if GO(station) is not replied within certain time then timeout happend and GROUP formation failed.

    Sometime if we put some wrong entry during connect command (intent,freq,mac) then also command fail and from that instant module start failing for GROUP FORMATION.

    As I said we can overcome on this using different intent number.

    But I want to know that is there any way we can resent or disconnect /reconnect p2p connection between client and station after failure?

    There is DISCONNECT and remove client commands are there in wpa_cli command set but that also not effective after failure occure.

 Thanks.

Hi, @Jtac 

Can you please have a try with below command:

p2p_group_remove p2p0 (here is your interface which is using for p2p)

This command can be used to disconnect and remove the connection.

Show you my result as below:

Best regards,

Christine.

Hi, @Jtac 

Thanks for your feedback and sorry for late reply because I was in Chinese Dragon Boat festival.

I will check it today and feedback to you ASAP.

Best regards,

Christine.

Hello Christine,

   Sorry for delayed response.

    Thanks a lot for suggestion.

    I tried give command it works, please check attached document.

    I also tried DISCONNECT commad with mac id that is also working.

    Thanks a lot for support.

[Christine_Li]

Hi, @Jtac 

I am very glad to hear that.

Then, I will close this ticket for now. If you have any other queries, please feel free to create new case to us.

Have a nice weekend~
