STM32WB55 radio comms without bluetooth?

[SteveJ]

Hi,

I have to use the transceiver for pure RF communications and implement my own protocole.
After checking several boards, I've be recommended the P-NUCLEO-WB55 but from all the doc and example I find, the transceiver is used for BlueTooth communications, which I don't need at all.
Is it possible to use its transceiver RF without BLE, Zigbee, etc... as a simple 2.4Ghz range transmitter and receiver?

If not, which MCU should I get, that includes a dev board offering AD, DA and pure RF ?
Thanks for any light.

Hello,

you can create your own protocol built on 802.15.4.

Please have a look here for more information.

Does the RF need to be 2.4GHz ?

Andrew,

Yes it has to be in the 2.4GHz range, not sub GHz.

Hello @SteveJ 

As suggested by @FilipKremen, the 802.15.4 is a widely used communication protocol that enables the creation of Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPAN). So, it will be a good idea to use it.

Best Regards.
