SNM401 Ad Hoc Network Module

1. Product Description

SNM401 Centerless Ad Hoc Network Module realizes centerless long-distance communication between modules, and adopts the world’s latest LDPC encoding and decoding technology, compared to the RS level used by traditional radio stations The concatenated convolutional code can have a coding gain of 5dB, and at the same time, through the “self-relay wireless communication” технологиялар, it innovatively realizes automatic relay between modules, thereby greatly improving the coverage effect and transmission distance. SNM401 adopts ad-hoc network wireless communication technology, any node can receive and process the same signal forwarded by multiple nodes at the same time, combine these signals forwarded from different nodes, demodulate the original information to the greatest extent possible, and have a larger transmission distance and higher transmission reliability. The wireless communication technology of the ad hoc network does not require routing, and multiple nodes automatically determine whether to start the forwarding according to the received signal quality and field strength, and the relay is upgraded from a multi-hop single-point relay to a multi-hop multi-point relay. The state relay is upgraded to a mesh relay. When any node in the relay network is disconnected from the network, other relay lines in the relay network work normally so that the relay effect is not affected.

7. LAYOUT precautions

1..SNM401 module works at 400-500МГцand the influence of various factors on wireless transceivers should be avoided.

2. It is laid under the module Ер, and the traces are extended to the periphery as far as possible.
3. It is recommended to use insulating material to isolate the module mounting position on the substrate, for example, place a whole piece of in this position

silkscreen

4. Try to take a short and thick power line to the module, the recommended copper line width is80mil, and the decoupling capacitor should be placed as close to the power pin as possible.
