ETH-LORA-M-AX-01
ACTIVE STEERING ALGORITHM
Modal Cognitive Diversity (MCD) is a proprietary predictive algorithm developed by Ethertronics to perform active steering capabilities of the multi
radiation patterns antenna in order to improve the link budget and sensitivity. Any antennas are sensitive to the change in their environment and their
performance can be degraded. Hence the goal of the MCD algorithm is to overcome this problem by determining the best radiation pattern for the
current position of the module. To be able to use this algorithm, the developer must integrate ETH-LORA-M-AX-01 using the active architecture (see
section 2.2.2). Ethertronics provide an active evaluation board which can be used to test this algorithm. Steps to activate MCD algorithm:Steps to
activate IM algorithm:
1. Activate the MCD
2. Initialize the MCD
3. Start the MCD via MCD control flag:
Once the MCD is started, developer can pause or stop the MCD by changing the MCD control flag value.
