RF Survey / Placement Optimization
Help installers position the gateway and rotate the antenna to get the best BLE field quality.
A phased roadmap for the Nexus BLE Gateway focused on field placement quality, local gateway diagnostics, and embedded stream reducers for scalable BLE acquisition.
Help installers position the gateway and rotate the antenna to get the best BLE field quality.
Add a local gateway flight recorder so support can inspect gateway-side diagnostics after the fact.
Add firmware-supported signal reducers that turn high-volume BLE/sample streams into compact metrics.
The live RF Survey mode is now implemented and provides pushed windowed RF quality updates from target BLE sensors.
This now serves as the installed base for the next RF Survey workflow improvements rather than a future roadmap phase.
Build on the RF Survey Mode MVP by allowing users to identify candidate gateway positions, compare the observed RF quality at those positions, and export the result for installation records or support.
The purpose is to support a more deliberate installation workflow where the user tests multiple physical positions or antenna orientations and then selects the best-performing option using data.
Move detailed BLE gateway diagnostics into a bounded local record-and-query model so the host can access details later when needed.
Diagnostics are currently handled live by the host, which adds transmission and computation overhead. The gateway is always connected to the host, but gateway-side diagnostics can be stored locally and accessed later instead of streamed live in detail.
Add firmware-supported reducers that compute compact metrics from raw BLE/sample streams over defined time windows.
BLE bandwidth and throughput are always contentious. The hardware can execute dedicated reducers that compute metrics from raw streams, reducing BLE, serial, and host processing load.
Nexus gives mixed sensor systems concurrent links, high-rate streaming, reusable host integration, and clear visibility into data quality — from motion to ECG and beyond.
