3.2.1 Transmitting and receiving frames
When transmitting a frame to a remote module, the transmitter begins an awakening procedure called
WakeUp, which is used to wake receiving modules, which then switch to RF reception mode. A succession of
binary symbols are sent by the radio during this preamble procedure.
There are two types of wake-up procedures:
Long wake-up Used when transmitting a request towards a remote module. You may set
duration parameters (1100 ms by default), which is generally equal to the
wake-up period of the module you are trying to reach, plus 100 ms in order
to avoid transmitting between two reception periods.
Short wake-up Used only when responding to a point-to-point request. Duration is 50ms and
cannot be changed.

When the receiving RF module detects the wake-up procedure, it executes the following operations:
It starts a time-out to wait for the synchronization word (sync). Duration of the time-out is slightly
longer than its WakeUp period, and cannot be changed.
It begins a phase of validating the WakeUp preamble (WakeUp detection). This phase
corresponds to the detection of several successive symbols that compose the preamble. If
detection fails, the module returns to stand-by mode. Detection time depends on transmission
speed.
