RF calibration
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
{IDF_TARGET_NAME} supports three RF calibration methods during RF initialization:
|
|
|
|
1. Partial calibration
|
|
|
|
2. Full calibration
|
|
|
|
3. No calibration
|
|
|
|
Partial calibration
|
|
-------------------
|
|
During RF initialization, the partial calibration method is used by default for RF calibration.
|
|
It is done based on the full calibration data which is stored in the NVS.
|
|
To use this method, please go to ``menuconfig`` and enable :ref:`CONFIG_ESP32_PHY_CALIBRATION_AND_DATA_STORAGE`.
|
|
|
|
Full calibration
|
|
----------------
|
|
Full calibration is triggered in the follwing conditions:
|
|
|
|
1. NVS does not exist.
|
|
|
|
2. The NVS partition to store calibration data is erased.
|
|
|
|
3. Hardware MAC address is changed.
|
|
|
|
4. PHY library version is changed.
|
|
|
|
5. The RF calibration data loaded from the NVS partition is broken.
|
|
|
|
It takes about 100ms more than partial calibration.
|
|
If boot duration is not critical, it is suggested to use the full calibration method.
|
|
To switch to the full calibration method, go to ``menuconfig`` and disable :ref:`CONFIG_ESP32_PHY_CALIBRATION_AND_DATA_STORAGE`.
|
|
If you use the default method of RF calibration, there are two ways to add the function of triggering full calibration as a last-resort remedy.
|
|
|
|
1. Erase the NVS partition if you don't mind all of the data stored in the NVS partition is erased. That is indeed the easiest way.
|
|
|
|
2. Call API :cpp:func:`esp_phy_erase_cal_data_in_nvs` before initializing WiFi and BT/BLE based on some conditions (e.g. an option provided in some diagnostic mode).
|
|
In this case, only phy namespace of the NVS partition is erased.
|
|
|
|
No calibration
|
|
---------------
|
|
No calibration method is only used when the device wakes up from deep sleep.
|
|
|
|
PHY initialization data
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
The PHY initialization data is used for RF calibration.
|
|
There are two ways to get the PHY initialization data.
|
|
|
|
.. only:: esp32
|
|
|
|
One is the default initialization data which is located in the header file :idf_file:`components/esp_wifi/esp32/include/phy_init_data.h`.
|
|
|
|
.. only:: esp32s2
|
|
|
|
One is the default initialization data which is located in the header file :idf_file:`components/esp_wifi/esp32s2/include/phy_init_data.h`.
|
|
|
|
It is embedded into the application binary after compiling and then stored into read-only memory (DROM).
|
|
To use the default initialization data, please go to ``menuconfig`` and disable :ref:`CONFIG_ESP32_PHY_INIT_DATA_IN_PARTITION`.
|
|
|
|
Another is the initialization data which is stored in a partition.
|
|
When using a custom partition table, make sure that PHY data partition is included (type: `data`, subtype: `phy`).
|
|
With default partition table, this is done automatically.
|
|
If initialization data is stored in a partition, it has to be flashed there, otherwise runtime error will occur.
|
|
To switch to the initialization data stored in a partition, go to ``menuconfig`` and enable :ref:`CONFIG_ESP32_PHY_INIT_DATA_IN_PARTITION`.
