This week, per our revised Gantt chart, I was able to send data from the Decawave chip to the Raspberry Pi over UART. Although I also wanted to transmit data over SPI, the SPI functionality in the Decawave chips were poorly documented. Their guide referenced a test program that was not actually included in the Decawave firmware and software bundle download. Thus, after conferring with my team, we decided to stick with UART over USB rather than waste time fiddling with SPI.
This week, now that I’m able to get correct timestamp data, I will be setting up a system of multiple Raspberry Pis attached to Decawave chips and collecting experimental data on metrics that can be fed into the simulator Udit and Rhea are developing.
Our team’s progress is still on schedule.
