2.1.2 - Request/ Response principle
Some exchanges need a Request/response mechanism.
In this case , an high level acknowledge (RES prefix command) is initiated by the RF board following the
request frame (REQ prefix command) sent by the host.
The request frame are identified by REQ_XXX_XXX
example : REQ_SEND_FRAME
The high level acknowledge frame are identified by RES_XXX_XXX
example : RES_SEND_FRAME
In this example, from the request transmitter side, the frame RECEIVED_FRAME is the response associated
to the request REQ_SEND_FRAME.
The high level acknowledgement of the request is identified by the RES_SEND_FRAME frame.
