PHY Evaluation Test Utility
User Guide for Linux
The ‘transmit’ utility is a command line application to perform Tx tests.
Before running the Tx tests, the user is expected to connect RS9113™ to
a signal analyzer using the RF cable.
The ‘receive’ utility is also a separate command line application that can
be used for displaying statistics on the received packets while carrying
out the receive sensitivity tests.
Please follow “RS9113-SW-Installation-Guide” for building and installing
the RS9113™ driver.
To configure the driver in “PER” Mode make sure to have the following
line in “release/insert.sh”.
DRIVER_MODE = 2
After the card has been detected successfully (issue “dmesg –c” in
terminal to check the status for the USB card it will show “new high-
speed USB device detection” while for the SDIO it will show “new High
speed SDIO card detected”) the Tx and Rx tests can be started. Please
follow the subsequent sections for executing the Tx and Rx tests.
When driver is compiled in “host” directory driver would be using binaries
from “release”.
If there are any modifications in “host” directory then driver compilation
is required.
The RS9113 driver offers two main modes of operation:
1. End-end, or Wi-Fi mode
2. PER mode for PHY evaluation
To configure the driver in Wi-Fi or (END-to-END) Mode make sure to have
the following line in “release/insert.sh”.
DRIVER_MODE = 1
In order to configure the driver in PHY Evaluation mode (PER mode) then
make sure the “DRIVER_MODE” parameter should be set as
DRIVER_MODE = 2
