Qcom wifi sar架构

wlan host接收从上层发出的指令来限制每一个wlan band/chain/制式，然后通过WMI指令发送到firmware 三种方式： 1. 在bdf里预设默认的limit值 2. 预设多套参数，然后通过cfg80211

指令发送下来，选择调用哪套 3. 动态去设置参数，通过cfg80211指令.

1. WIFI sar架构

 2. WMI指令

 2.1 Example of multiple default sets

 2.2 Set only one limit, no default used

 

Set 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz limits, no default used

In case that users aim to set power limits for:

■ Band: 5 GHz, Chain: 0, Modulation: OFDM to limit 5

■ Band: 2 GHz, Chain: 0, Modulation: OFDM to limit 6

■ Band: 2 GHz, Chain: 0, Modulation: CCK to limit 7

■ Band: 2 GHz, Chain: 1, Modulation: either CCK or OFDM) to limit 8

■ No other combination is present to set NO_LIMIT when applying the power limits

 

3. BDF配置

这部分bdf参数修改，是射频提供，可参考文档

80-ya512-12_ye_wcn39xx_wlan_coexistence_software_user_guide_and_SAR.pdf

4. VendorCommand

4.1 方法一：xml解析

 高通提供了一个idea，将所有的配置放在xml里，然后使用指令去解析，调用哪一套参数

 

 例子：

 4.2 Configure SAR by using NL80211 interface

高通在hostdriver层其实已经封装好了相关的接口，我们只需要写一个上层程序，通过nl80211往hostdriver层传值即可

set sar limit

 

 get sar limit

 

 5. 功率显示的值

 

 Note: Although SAR table in BDF has power configuration for each chains, WLAN firmware picks the minimum power value only in each chain and displays that value for both chains.
