Accurate Bluetooth Ranging (ABR)#

Accurate Bluetooth Ranging.

These functions are related to the phase-based estimation of distance from I/Q-samples. The distances can be calculated following these steps:

  1. Initialize a sl_rtl_abr_libitem instance

  2. Set up the calculation parameters

  3. Create the estimator

  4. Process the I/Q data into a distance

  5. Get distance estimate
