➢ Case of too long WakeUp (much higher than the receiver WakeUp period)
b) Example describing a point-to-point exchange of the type Request / Response.
When using a point-to-point exchange of the type request/ Response, the transmission of the request is
made in the same way that previously. But the transmitter, after the sending of the data, awaits for a
response, during a time which can be configured by the RADIO_USER_TIMEOUT parameter (0x0C).
The receiver, after treatment of the request, will return its response by using a specific WakeUp preamble,
called short WakeUp (Long WakeUp being useless since the transmitter is already in phase of reception).
➢ Exchange without radio acknowledge
