IEEE 802.15.4#
IEEE 802.15.4 configuration routines.
The functions in this group configure RAIL IEEE 802.15.4 hardware acceleration which includes IEEE 802.15.4 format filtering, address filtering, ACKing, and filtering based on the frame type.
To configure IEEE 802.15.4 functionality, the application must first set up a RAIL instance with RAIL_Init() and other setup functions. Instead of RAIL_ConfigChannels(), however, an application may use RAIL_IEEE802154_Config2p4GHzRadio() to set up the official IEEE 2.4 GHz 802.15.4 PHY. This configuration is shown below.
802.15.4 defines its macAckWaitDuration from the end of the transmitted packet to complete reception of the ACK. RAIL's ackTimeout only covers sync word detection of the ACK. Therefore, subtract the ACK's PHY header and payload time to get RAIL's ackTimeout setting. For 2.4 GHz OQPSK, macAckWaitDuration is specified as 54 symbols; subtracting 2-symbol PHY header and 10-symbol payload yields a RAIL ackTimeout of 42 symbols or 672 microseconds at 16 microseconds/symbol.

// Initialize the IEEE 802.15.4 configuration using the static configuration above.
RAIL_IEEE802154_Init(railHandle, &rail154Config);
}
To configure address filtering, call RAIL_IEEE802154_SetAddresses() with a structure containing all addresses or call the individual RAIL_IEEE802154_SetPanId(), RAIL_IEEE802154_SetShortAddress(), and RAIL_IEEE802154_SetLongAddress() APIs. RAIL supports RAIL_IEEE802154_MAX_ADDRESSES number of address pairs to receive packets from multiple IEEE 802.15.4 networks at the same time. Broadcast addresses are supported by default without any additional configuration so they do not consume one of these slots. If the application does not require all address pairs, be sure to set unused ones to the proper disabled value for each type. These can be found in the RAIL_IEEE802154_AddrConfig_t documentation. Below is an example of setting filtering for one set of addresses.
// PanID OTA value of 0x34 0x12.
// Short Address OTA byte order of 0x78 0x56.
// Long address with OTA byte order of 0x11 0x22 0x33 0x44 0x55 0x66 0x77 0x88.
// Set up all addresses simultaneously.
RAIL_Status_t setup1(void)
{
RAIL_IEEE802154_AddrConfig_t nodeAddress = {
{ 0x1234, 0xFFFF, 0xFFFF },
{ 0x5678, 0xFFFF, 0xFFFF },
{ { 0x11, 0x22, 0x33, 0x44, 0x55, 0x66, 0x77, 0x88 },
{ 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 },
{ 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 } }
};
return RAIL_IEEE802154_SetAddresses(railHandle, &nodeAddress);
}
// Alternatively, the addresses can be set up individually as follows:
RAIL_Status_t setup2(void)
{
RAIL_Status_t status;
const uint8_t longAddress[] = { 0x11, 0x22, 0x33, 0x44, 0x55, 0x66, 0x77, 0x88 };
status = RAIL_IEEE802154_SetPanId(railHandle, 0x1234, 0);
if (status != RAIL_STATUS_NO_ERROR) {
return status
}
status = RAIL_IEEE802154_SetShortAddress(railHandle, 0x5678, 0);
if (status != RAIL_STATUS_NO_ERROR) {
return status
}
status = RAIL_IEEE802154_SetLongAddress(railHandle, longAddress, 0);
if (status != RAIL_STATUS_NO_ERROR) {
return status
}
return RAIL_STATUS_NO_ERROR;
}
Address filtering will be enabled except when in promiscuous mode, which can be set with RAIL_IEEE802154_SetPromiscuousMode(). The addresses may be changed at runtime. However, if you are receiving a packet while reconfiguring the address filters, you may get undesired behavior so it's safest to do this while not in receive.
Auto ACK is controlled by the ackConfig and timings fields passed to RAIL_IEEE802154_Init(). After initialization, they may be controlled using the normal Auto-ACK and State Transitions APIs. When in IEEE 802.15.4 mode, the ACK will generally have a 5 byte length, its Frame Type will be ACK, its Frame Version 0 (2003), and its Frame Pending bit will be false unless the RAIL_EVENT_IEEE802154_DATA_REQUEST_COMMAND event is triggered in which case it will default to the RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::defaultFramePendingInOutgoingAcks setting. If the default Frame Pending setting is incorrect, the app must call RAIL_IEEE802154_ToggleFramePending (formerly RAIL_IEEE802154_SetFramePending) while handling the RAIL_EVENT_IEEE802154_DATA_REQUEST_COMMAND event.
This event must be turned on by the user and will fire whenever a data request is being received so that the stack can determine if there is pending data. Note that if the default Frame Pending bit needs to be changed, it must be done quickly. Otherwise, the ACK may already have been transmitted with the default setting. Check the return code of RAIL_IEEE802154_ToggleFramePending() to be sure that the bit was changed in time.
Transmit and receive operations are done using the standard RAIL APIs in IEEE 802.15.4 mode. To send packets using the correct CSMA configuration, use RAIL_CSMA_CONFIG_802_15_4_2003_2p4_GHz_OQPSK_CSMA define that can initialize the csmaConfig structure passed to RAIL_StartCcaCsmaTx().

Set which 802.15.4 frame types to accept.
[in] | railHandle | A handle of RAIL instance. |
[in] | framesMask | A mask containing which 802.15.4 frame types to receive. |
Returns
A status code indicating success of the function call.
This function will fail if 802.15.4 hardware acceleration is not currently enabled or framesMask requests an unsupported frame type. This setting may be changed at any time when 802.15.4 hardware acceleration is enabled. Only Beacon, Data, ACK, Command, and Multipurpose (except on EFR32XG1) frames may be received. The RAIL_IEEE802154_ACCEPT_XXX_FRAMES defines may be combined to create a bitmask to pass into this function.
RAIL_IEEE802154_ACCEPT_ACK_FRAMES behaves slightly different than the other defines. If RAIL_IEEE802154_ACCEPT_ACK_FRAMES is set, the radio will accept an ACK frame during normal packet reception, but only a truly expected ACK will have its RAIL_RxPacketDetails_t::isAck true. If RAIL_IEEE802154_ACCEPT_ACK_FRAMES is not set, ACK frames will be filtered unless they're expected when the radio is waiting for an ACK.

RAIL_IEEE802154_EnableEarlyFramePending#
RAIL_Status_t RAIL_IEEE802154_EnableEarlyFramePending (RAIL_Handle_t railHandle, bool enable)
Enable early Frame Pending lookup event notification (RAIL_EVENT_IEEE802154_DATA_REQUEST_COMMAND).
[in] | railHandle | A handle of RAIL instance. |
[in] | enable | True to enable, false to disable. |
Returns
A status code indicating success of the function call.
Normally, RAIL_EVENT_IEEE802154_DATA_REQUEST_COMMAND is triggered after receiving the entire MAC header and MAC command byte for an ACK-requesting MAC command frame. Version 0/1 frames also require that command to be a Data Request for this event to occur. Enabling this feature causes this event to be triggered earlier to allow for more time to determine the type of ACK needed (Immediate or Enhanced) and/or perform frame pending lookup to influence the outgoing ACK by using RAIL_IEEE802154_WriteEnhAck() or RAIL_IEEE802154_ToggleFramePending().
For Frame Version 0/1 packets and for Frame Version 2 packets when RAIL_IEEE802154_E_OPTION_ENH_ACK is not in use, "early" means right after receiving the source address information in the MAC header.
For Frame Version 2 packets when RAIL_IEEE802154_E_OPTION_ENH_ACK is in use, "early" means right after receiving any Auxiliary Security header which follows the source address information in the MAC header.
This feature is useful when the protocol knows an ACK-requesting MAC Command must be a data poll without needing to receive the MAC Command byte, giving it a bit more time to adjust Frame Pending or generate an Enhanced ACK.
This function will fail if 802.15.4 hardware acceleration is not currently enabled, or on platforms that do not support this feature. This setting may be changed at any time when 802.15.4 hardware acceleration is enabled.

RAIL_IEEE802154_EnableDataFramePending#
RAIL_Status_t RAIL_IEEE802154_EnableDataFramePending (RAIL_Handle_t railHandle, bool enable)
Enable Frame Pending lookup event notification (RAIL_EVENT_IEEE802154_DATA_REQUEST_COMMAND) for MAC Data frames.
[in] | railHandle | A handle of RAIL instance. |
[in] | enable | True to enable, false to disable. |
Returns
A status code indicating success of the function call.
Normally RAIL_EVENT_IEEE802154_DATA_REQUEST_COMMAND is triggered only for ACK-requesting MAC command frames. Enabling this feature causes this event to also be triggered for MAC data frames, at the same point in the packet as RAIL_IEEE802154_EnableEarlyFramePending() would trigger. This feature is necessary to support the Thread Basil-Hayden Enhanced Frame Pending feature in Version 0/1 frames, and to support Version 2 Data frames which require an Enhanced ACK.
This function will fail if 802.15.4 hardware acceleration is not currently enabled. This setting may be changed at any time when 802.15.4 hardware acceleration is enabled.

RAIL_IEEE802154_SetFramePending#
RAIL_Status_t RAIL_IEEE802154_SetFramePending (RAIL_Handle_t railHandle)
Change the Frame Pending bit on the outgoing legacy Immediate ACK from the default specified by RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::defaultFramePendingInOutgoingAcks.
[in] | railHandle | A handle of RAIL instance |
Returns
A status code indicating success of the function call.
This function must only be called while processing the RAIL_EVENT_IEEE802154_DATA_REQUEST_COMMAND if the ACK for this packet should go out with its Frame Pending bit set differently than what was specified by RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::defaultFramePendingInOutgoingAcks.
It's intended only for use with 802.15.4 legacy immediate ACKs and not 802.15.4E enhanced ACKs. This will return RAIL_STATUS_INVALID_STATE if it is too late to modify the outgoing Immediate ACK.
Note
This function is used to set the Frame Pending bit but its meaning depends on the value of RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::defaultFramePendingInOutgoingAcks while transmitting ACK. If RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::defaultFramePendingInOutgoingAcks is not set, then Frame Pending bit is set in outgoing ACK. Whereas, if RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::defaultFramePendingInOutgoingAcks is set, then Frame Pending bit is cleared in outgoing ACK.
Therefore, this function is to be called if the frame is pending when RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::defaultFramePendingInOutgoingAcks is not set or if there is no frame pending when RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::defaultFramePendingInOutgoingAcks is set.

[in] | railHandle | A RAIL instance handle. |
[out] | pAddress | A pointer to RAIL_IEEE802154_Address_t structure to populate with source address information. |
Returns
A status code indicating success of the function call.
This function must only be called when handling the RAIL_EVENT_IEEE802154_DATA_REQUEST_COMMAND event. This will return RAIL_STATUS_INVALID_STATE if the address information is stale (i.e., it is too late to affect the outgoing ACK).

Write the AutoACK FIFO for the next outgoing 802.15.4E Enhanced ACK.
[in] | railHandle | A handle of RAIL instance. |
[in] | ackData | Pointer to ACK data to transmit This may be NULL, in which case it's assumed the data has already been emplaced into the ACK buffer and RAIL just needs to be told how many bytes are there. Use RAIL_GetAutoAckFifo() to get the address of RAIL's AutoACK buffer in RAM and its size. |
[in] | ackDataLen | Length of ACK data, in bytes. If this exceeds RAIL_AUTOACK_MAX_LENGTH the function will return RAIL_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER. |
Returns
A status code indicating success of the function call.
This function sets the AutoACK data to use in acknowledging the frame being received. It must only be called while processing the RAIL_EVENT_IEEE802154_DATA_REQUEST_COMMAND, and is intended for use when packet information from RAIL_GetRxIncomingPacketInfo() indicates an 802.15.4E Enhanced ACK must be sent instead of a legacy Immediate ACK. RAIL_IEEE802154_ToggleFramePending() should not be called for an Enhanced ACK; instead the Enhanced ACK's Frame Control Field should have the Frame Pending bit set appropriately in its ackData. This will return RAIL_STATUS_INVALID_STATE if it is too late to write the outgoing ACK – a situation that will likely trigger a RAIL_EVENT_TXACK_UNDERFLOW event. When successful, the Enhanced ackData will only be sent once. Subsequent packets needing an Enhanced ACK will each need to call this function to write their ACK information.

RAIL_Status_t RAIL_IEEE802154_SetRxToEnhAckTx (RAIL_Handle_t railHandle, RAIL_TransitionTime_t * pRxToEnhAckTx)
Set a separate RX packet to TX state transition turnaround time for sending an Enhanced ACK.
[in] | railHandle | A RAIL instance handle. |
[inout] | pRxToEnhAckTx | Pointer to the turnaround transition requested for Enhanced ACKs. It will be updated with the actual time set. Requesting a time of 0 will sync the Enhanced ACK turnaround time with that used for immediate ACKs (and output 0). Requesting a time of RAIL_TRANSITION_TIME_KEEP will output the current Enhanced ACK timing parameter (0 if it is the same as that used for Immediate ACKs). |
Returns
Status code indicating a success of the function call. An error will not update the pRxToEnhAckTx output parameter.
Normally Immediate and Enhanced ACKs are both sent using the RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::timings rxToTx turnaround time. If the stack needs more time to prepare an Enhanced ACK, it can call this function after RAIL_IEEE802154_Init() to set a longer turnaround time used just for Enhanced ACK transmits.
This function will fail on platforms that lack RAIL_IEEE802154_SUPPORTS_E_ENHANCED_ACK.

Returns
Status code indicating success of the function call.
This function configures RX channel switching, allowing reception of 2.4Ghz 802.15.4 signals on two specified radio channels. This function must be called once before RAIL_StartRx and/or enabling RAIL_RX_OPTION_CHANNEL_SWITCHING.
Note
IEEE 802.15.4 must be enabled via RAIL_IEEE802154_Init, and the radio must be in the idle state when configuring RX channel switching. A DMA channel must be allocated with RAIL_UseDma; otherwise this API will return RAIL_STATUS_INVALID_CALL. This feature also requires a PRS channel, internally allocated by the RAIL library, to use and hold onto for future use. If no PRS channel is available, the function returns RAIL_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER.
When RX channel switching is active, receive sensitivity and performance are slightly impacted.
This function internally uses RAIL_EnableCacheSynthCal to enable/disable the sequencer cache to store the synth calibration value.

#define RAIL_IEEE802154_E_OPTION_GB868Value:
(1UL << RAIL_IEEE802154_E_OPTION_GB868_SHIFT)
An option to enable/disable 802.15.4E-2012 features needed for GB868.
When not promiscuous, RAIL normally accepts only 802.15.4 MAC frames whose MAC header Frame Version is 0 (802.15.4-2003) or 1 (802.15.4-2006), filtering out higher Frame Version packets (as RAIL_RX_PACKET_ABORT_FORMAT). Enabling this feature additionally allows Frame Version 2 (802.15.4E-2012 / 802.15.4-2015) packets to be accepted and passed to the application.
Note
Enabling this feature also automatically enables RAIL_IEEE802154_E_OPTION_ENH_ACK on platforms that support that feature.
This feature does not automatically enable receiving Multipurpose frames; that can be enabled via RAIL_IEEE802154_AcceptFrames()'s RAIL_IEEE802154_ACCEPT_MULTIPURPOSE_FRAMES.

RAIL_IEEE802154_E_OPTION_ENH_ACK#
#define RAIL_IEEE802154_E_OPTION_ENH_ACKValue:
(1UL << RAIL_IEEE802154_E_OPTION_ENH_ACK_SHIFT)
An option to enable/disable 802.15.4E-2012 features needed for Enhanced ACKs.
This option requires that RAIL_IEEE802154_E_OPTION_GB868 also be enabled, and is enabled automatically on platforms that support this feature. It exists as a separate flag to allow runtime detection of whether the platform supports this feature or not.
When enabled, only an Enhanced ACK is expected in response to a transmitted ACK-requesting 802.15.4E Version 2 frame. RAIL only knows how to construct 802.15.4 Immediate ACKs but not Enhanced ACKs.
This option causes RAIL_EVENT_IEEE802154_DATA_REQUEST_COMMAND to be issued for ACK-requesting Version 2 MAC Command frames, Data frames (if RAIL_IEEE802154_EnableDataFramePending() is enabled), and Multipurpose Frames (if RAIL_IEEE802154_ACCEPT_MULTIPURPOSE_FRAMES is enabled).
The application is expected to handle this event by calling RAIL_GetRxIncomingPacketInfo() and parsing the partly-received incoming frame to determine the type of ACK needed:
If an Immediate ACK, determine Frame Pending needs based on the packet type and addressing information and call RAIL_IEEE802154_ToggleFramePending() if necessary;
If an Enhanced ACK, generate the complete payload of the Enhanced ACK including any Frame Pending information and call RAIL_IEEE802154_WriteEnhAck() in time for that Enhanced ACK to be sent. If not called in time, RAIL_EVENT_TXACK_UNDERFLOW will likely result. Note that if 802.15.4 MAC-level encryption is used with Version 2 frames, the application should decrypt the MAC Command byte in a MAC Command frame to determine whether it is a Data Request or other MAC Command.
An application can also enable RAIL_IEEE802154_EnableEarlyFramePending() if the protocol doesn't need to examine the MAC Command byte of MAC Command frames but can infer it to be a Data Request.
On 802.15.4E GB868 platforms that lack this support, legacy Immediate ACKs are sent/expected for received/transmitted ACK-requesting 802.15.4E Frame Version 2 frames; calls to RAIL_IEEE802154_WriteEnhAck() have no effect. Attempting to use this feature via RAIL_IEEE802154_ConfigEOptions() returns an error.

#define RAIL_IEEE802154_G_OPTION_GB868Value:
(1UL << RAIL_IEEE802154_G_OPTION_GB868_SHIFT)
An option to enable/disable 802.15.4G-2012 features needed for GB868.
Normally RAIL supports 802.15.4-2003 and -2006 radio configurations that have the single-byte PHY header allowing frames up to 128 bytes in size. This feature must be enabled for 802.15.4G-2012 or 802.15.4-2015 SUN PHY radio configurations with the two-byte bit-reversed-length PHY header format.
While GB868 only supports whitened non-FEC non-mode-switch frames up to 129 bytes including 2-byte CRC, this option also enables:
On platforms where RAIL_FEAT_IEEE802154_G_4BYTE_CRC_SUPPORTED is true: automatic per-packet 2/4-byte Frame Check Sequence (FCS) reception and transmission based on the FCS Type bit in the received/transmitted PHY header. This includes ACK reception and automatically-generated ACKs reflect the CRC size of the incoming frame being acknowledged (i.e., their MAC payload will be increased to 7 bytes when sending 4-byte FCS). On other platforms, only the 2-byte FCS is supported.
On platforms where RAIL_FEAT_IEEE802154_G_UNWHITENED_RX_SUPPORTED and/or RAIL_FEAT_IEEE802154_G_UNWHITENED_TX_SUPPORTED are true: automatic per-packet whitened/unwhitened reception and transmission, respectively, based on the Data Whitening bit in the received/transmitted PHY header. This includes ACK reception and automatically-generated ACKs which reflect the whitening of the incoming frame being acknowledged. On other platforms, only whitened frames are supported.
Support for frames up to 2049 bytes per the radio configuration's maximum packet length setting.
Note
Sending/receiving whitened frames assumes the radio configuration has established an appropriate 802.15.4-compliant whitening algorithm. RAIL does not itself override the radio configuration's whitening settings other than to enable/disable it per-packet based on the packet's PHY header Data Whitening flag.

RAIL_IEEE802154_G_OPTION_DYNFEC#
#define RAIL_IEEE802154_G_OPTION_DYNFECValue:
(1UL << RAIL_IEEE802154_G_OPTION_DYNFEC_SHIFT)
An option to enable/disable 802.15.4G dynamic FEC feature (SUN FSK only).
The syncWord, called start-of-frame delimiter (SFD) in the 15.4 spec, indicates whether the rest of the packet is FEC encoded or not. This feature requires per-packet dual syncWord detection and specific receiver pausing. Note that this feature is only available on platforms where RAIL_IEEE802154_SUPPORTS_G_DYNFEC is true.
This option is only valid for SUN PHYs that have the FEC configured and enabled.
The syncWord used during transmit is selected with RAIL_TX_OPTION_SYNC_WORD_ID.
The syncWord corresponding to the FEC encoded mode must be SYNC1, with SYNC2 indicating non-FEC. SyncWords are set appropriately in all Sun FEC-enabled PHYs so there should never be a need to call RAIL_ConfigSyncWords() when this option is enabled.
Also, dual syncWord detection is set in all SUN FEC enabled PHYs, then there is no need to change RAIL_RX_OPTION_ENABLE_DUALSYNC .
Note
EFR32xG12 support for 802.15.4 FEC-capable PHYs and dynamic FEC are incompatible with 802.15.4 filtering and AutoACK. RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::promiscuousMode must be true and RAIL_IEEE802154_Config_t::ackConfig's RAIL_AutoAckConfig_t::enable must be false on these platforms when using a FEC-capable PHY.

(1UL << RAIL_IEEE802154_G_OPTION_WISUN_MODESWITCH_SHIFT)
An option to enable/disable Wi-SUN Mode Switch feature.
This feature consists in switching to a new PHY mode with a higher rate typically by sending/receiving a specific Mode Switch packet that indicates the incoming new PHY mode. The Mode Switch packet is an FSK-modulated 2-byte PHY header with no payload. Because this feature relies on specific receiver pausing, note that it is only available on platforms where RAIL_IEEE802154_SUPPORTS_G_MODESWITCH is true.
