ESP32 Low Rate propietary protocol – WIFI_PROTOCOL_LR

Marcelo Miguel asked 4 years ago

Hello there!
Has anyone got some experience working in the Low Rate mode?
As per Espressif documentation:

LR Transmission Distance
The reception sensitivity of LR has about 4 dB gain than the traditional 802.11B mode, theoretically the transmission distance is about 2 to 2.5 times the distance of 11B.

esp_wifi_set_protocol(WIFI_IF_STA, WIFI_PROTOCOL_LR);
//In both AP and STA

Cheers! Marcelo from Argentina

Hi.
I never tried that method.
Do you have any experience with that?

I would like to implement the LR mode also. Any updates based on the (great) tutorials you’ve already put together?
