Zpal-radio#

Defines a platform abstraction layer for the Z-Wave radio.

The ZPAL Radio module contains several APIs which are required to be implemented.

A user of this radio module shall first define all parameters of the Z-Wave Radio Profile (i.e., zpal_radio_profile_t) and initialise the radio using zpal_radio_init API.

After the initialisation of the radio is executed, the user can use any of the radio APIs to execute radio related paradigm for instance

  • zpal_radio_transmit shall be used to transmit a Z-Wave frame on radio

  • zpal_radio_start_receive shall be used to enable the reception of Z-Wave frame

The radio API assumes that the radio will return to receive mode with channel hopping enabled after transmitting a frame.

Initialization of the radio#

void
RXHandlerFromISR(zpal_radio_event_t rxStatus)
{
   // Rx handle in ISR context
}

void
TXHandlerFromISR(zpal_radio_event_t txEvent)
{
  // Tx complete handle in ISR context
}

void
RegionChangeHandler(zpal_radio_event_t regionChangeStatus)
{
  // Region changed, make sure region specific data and statistics are cleared
}

void
RadioAssertHandler(zpal_radio_event_t assertVal)
{
  // Radio driver or hardware asserted, handle it
}
