AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

This skill provides a structured approach to generating, simulating, and analyzing Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) physical layer waveforms. It covers the use of core MATLAB functions such as bleWaveformGenerator, bleIdealReceiver, and bleAngleEstimate to support tasks ranging from basic waveform creation to complex direction-finding (CTE) pipelines, RF-PHY compliance testing, and BER simulations. The skill emphasizes correct configuration for LE1M, LE2M, and Coded PHY modes while adhering to Bluetooth 5.1+ specifications.

What it does

Generates BLE PHY waveforms for LE1M, LE2M, LE500K, and LE125K modes.
Simulates direction-finding pipelines using Constant Tone Extension (CTE) for AoA/AoD.
Performs RF-PHY compliance testing and transmitter measurements like PAPR and OBW.
Models receiver performance through BER simulations and WLAN coexistence scenarios.
Configures advertising and data channel PDUs with custom access addresses and whitening.
Provides visualization patterns for IQ samples and spectral analysis.

When to use it

When generating BLE PHY waveforms for simulation or testing.
When implementing direction-finding (AoA/AoD) using CTE.
When performing RF-PHY compliance or transmitter performance measurements.
When simulating receiver sensitivity and BER under noise or interference.
When comparing different BLE PHY modes or analyzing spectral characteristics.

Advantages

Ensures adherence to BLE specification constraints regarding PHY modes and channels.
Provides standardized patterns for complex tasks like CTE pipelines and multi-packet bursts.
Prevents common API hallucinations by enforcing correct parameter usage.
Includes robust conventions for spectral analysis and visualization.
Facilitates accurate simulation of practical receiver impairments.

Usage examples

“Generate an LE2M BLE waveform for channel 15 with a random payload.”: The agent provides a script using bleWaveformGenerator with Mode set to 'LE2M' and ChannelIndex set to 15, ensuring the symbol rate is correctly calculated as 2 Msym/s.
“How do I simulate a CTE connection-oriented packet for direction finding?”: The agent provides a code snippet using bleWaveformGenerator with DFPacketType set to 'ConnectionCTE', followed by the appropriate IQ sampling and angle estimation workflow.
“Show me how to calculate the Bit Error Rate for an LE1M signal.”: The agent generates a loop-based script that iterates through SNR values, applies AWGN to the generated waveform, and uses bleIdealReceiver to calculate the error rate.
“Can I use LE2M for advertising on channel 37?”: The agent correctly identifies this as a specification violation and refuses the request, explaining that advertising channels (37-39) are restricted to LE1M or Coded PHYs.

When To Use

Use this skill when the user asks to generate, simulate, or analyze BLE PHY-layer waveforms — including mode comparisons, CTE/direction finding, RF-PHY compliance testing, BER simulations, TX measurements, WLAN coexistence, or RSSI localization. Applies to any task involving bleWaveformGenerator, bleIdealReceiver, bleCTEIQSample, bleAngleEstimate, or bluetoothTestWaveform.

When Not To Use

BR/EDR (Classic Bluetooth) → use bluetoothWaveformGenerator (covered by a separate BR/EDR skill)
Channel Sounding (CS) → use bleCSWaveform(bleCSConfig) (R2024b+); CS has its own ranging/distance-measurement pipeline and is not part of PHY waveform generation
Network-level simulation → use bluetoothLENode for link-layer/network modeling
Path loss modeling → use bluetoothPathLoss for propagation/channel modeling

waveform = bleWaveformGenerator(messageBits, ...
    Mode=phyMode, SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ...
    ChannelIndex=ch, WhitenStatus="On");
symbolRate = 1e6 + 1e6*(phyMode=="LE2M");
fs = symbolRate * sps;

Patterns

All-Mode Comparison

phyModes = ["LE1M","LE2M","LE500K","LE125K"];
sps = 8;
messageBits = randi([0 1], 37*8, 1);
figure; tl = tiledlayout(4,2,TileSpacing="compact",Padding="compact");
title(tl,"BLE - All PHY Modes")
for idx = 1:4
    wf = bleWaveformGenerator(messageBits, ...
        Mode=phyModes(idx), SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=37, WhitenStatus="On");
    sr = 1e6 + 1e6*(phyModes(idx)=="LE2M");

    plot(f, 20*log10(abs(fftshift(fft(wf)))/N+eps))
    xlabel("Frequency (MHz)"); ylabel("dB"); title(phyModes(idx)+" - Spectrum")
    grid on; xlim([-3 3]); ylim([-80 0])
end

Multi-Packet Burst (T_IFS = 150 us)

sps = 8; fs = 1e6*sps;
messageBits = randi([0 1], 37*8, 1);
ifsGap = complex(zeros(round(150e-6*fs), 1));
burst = complex(zeros(0,1));
for pkt = 1:3
    wf = bleWaveformGenerator(messageBits, Mode="LE1M", SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=37);
    burst = [burst; wf; ifsGap]; %#ok<AGROW>
end

Round-Trip Decode

messageBits = randi([0 1], 37*8, 1); sps = 8;
wf = bleWaveformGenerator(messageBits, Mode="LE1M", SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=37, WhitenStatus="On");
rxBits = bleIdealReceiver(wf, Mode="LE1M", SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=37, WhitenStatus="On");
assert(isequal(rxBits, messageBits))

Data Channel + Custom Access Address

accessAddr = randi([0 1], 32, 1);
wf = bleWaveformGenerator(randi([0 1],27*8,1), ...
    Mode="LE2M", SamplesPerSymbol=8, ChannelIndex=9, ...
    AccessAddress=accessAddr, WhitenStatus="On");
fs = 2e6 * 8;

CTE Generation

messageBits = randi([0 1], 20*8, 1); sps = 8; fs = 1e6*sps;
wf_noCTE = bleWaveformGenerator(messageBits, Mode="LE1M", ...
    SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=10, WhitenStatus="On");
wf_conn = bleWaveformGenerator(messageBits, Mode="LE1M", ...
    SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=10, WhitenStatus="On", DFPacketType="ConnectionCTE");
wf_cless = bleWaveformGenerator(messageBits, Mode="LE1M", ...
    SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=10, WhitenStatus="On", DFPacketType="ConnectionlessCTE");

% CTE appends unmodulated constant tone for antenna switching (typ. 72-216 us)
cteDelta_conn_us = (length(wf_conn) - length(wf_noCTE)) / fs * 1e6;
cteDelta_cless_us = (length(wf_cless) - length(wf_noCTE)) / fs * 1e6;

CTE Full Pipeline (Tx → Rx → Angle)

pduHex = '02049B03270102030405';  % 10-byte PDU (>=6 bytes needed for >=11 IQ samples)
pdu = int2bit(hex2dec(reshape(pduHex, 2, [])'), 8, false);
pdu = pdu(:);
cfgCRC = crcConfig(Polynomial="z^24+z^10+z^9+z^6+z^4+z^3+z+1", ...
    InitialConditions=int2bit(hex2dec('555551'),24), DirectMethod=true);
pduCRC = crcGenerate(pdu, cfgCRC);
txWf = bleWaveformGenerator(pduCRC, ChannelIndex=36, DFPacketType="ConnectionlessCTE");
[~, ~, iqSamples] = bleIdealReceiver(txWf, ChannelIndex=36, ...
    DFPacketType="ConnectionlessCTE", SlotDuration=2);
cfgAngle = bleAngleEstimateConfig;
cfgAngle.ArraySize = 4; cfgAngle.SlotDuration = 2; cfgAngle.SwitchingPattern = [1 2 3 4];
angle = bleAngleEstimate(iqSamples, cfgAngle);

Alternative (R2022a+): iqSamples = bleCTEIQSample(cteSamples, Mode="LE1M", SlotDuration=2);

BER Simulation

messageBits = randi([0 1], 100*8, 1); sps = 8; phyMode = "LE1M";
snrValues = 0:4:20; berResults = zeros(size(snrValues));
for idx = 1:length(snrValues)
    wf = bleWaveformGenerator(messageBits, Mode=phyMode, SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=5, WhitenStatus="On");
    sigPower = mean(abs(wf).^2);
    rxWf = awgn(wf, snrValues(idx), 10*log10(sigPower));
    rxBits = bleIdealReceiver(rxWf, Mode=phyMode, SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=5, WhitenStatus="On");
    n = min(length(messageBits), length(rxBits));
    berResults(idx) = sum(messageBits(1:n) ~= double(rxBits(1:n))) / n;
end
semilogy(snrValues, berResults, "-o"); xlabel("SNR (dB)"); ylabel("BER"); grid on

bleIdealReceiver returns int8 — cast with double(). For Eb/No conversion: snr = convertSNR(EbNo,"ebno","snr",SamplesPerSymbol=sps).

RF-PHY Test Waveform

cfg = bluetoothTestWaveformConfig;
cfg.Mode = "LE1M"; cfg.PayloadLength = 37;
cfg.PacketType = "Disabled"; cfg.ModulationIndex = 0.5;
testWf = bluetoothTestWaveform(cfg);

rfCfg = bluetoothRFPHYTestConfig;
rfCfg.Test = "Output power"; rfCfg.Mode = "LE1M";
rfCfg.PayloadLength = 37; rfCfg.OutputPower = 0; rfCfg.CenterFrequency = "Mid";

WLAN Coexistence

sps = 8; fs = 1e6*sps;
bleWf = bleWaveformGenerator(randi([0 1],37*8,1), Mode="LE1M", SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=37, WhitenStatus="On");
t = (0:length(bleWf)-1)'/fs;
wlanInterferer = 0.1*complex(randn(length(bleWf),1),randn(length(bleWf),1)) .* exp(1j*2*pi*3e6*t);
combined = bleWf + wlanInterferer;
CIR_dB = 10*log10(mean(abs(bleWf).^2) / mean(abs(wlanInterferer).^2));

TX Measurements (Power, OBW, PAPR)

sps = 8; wf = bleWaveformGenerator(randi([0 1],255*8,1), Mode="LE1M", ...
    SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=37, WhitenStatus="On", ModulationIndex=0.5);
fs = 1e6*sps; N = length(wf);
avgPower_dBm = 10*log10(mean(abs(wf).^2)) + 30;
spec = abs(fftshift(fft(wf))).^2; cumP = cumsum(spec)/sum(spec);
f = (-N/2:N/2-1)*(fs/N);
occBW_MHz = (f(find(cumP>=0.995,1)) - f(find(cumP>=0.005,1))) / 1e6;
papr_dB = 10*log10(max(abs(wf).^2) / mean(abs(wf).^2));

Whitening Comparison

bits = randi([0 1], 37*8, 1); sps = 8;
wfOn  = bleWaveformGenerator(bits, Mode="LE1M", SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=37, WhitenStatus="On");
wfOff = bleWaveformGenerator(bits, Mode="LE1M", SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=37, WhitenStatus="Off");

Advertising PDU (ADV_IND)

cfgAdv = bleLLAdvertisingChannelPDUConfig;
cfgAdv.PDUType = "Advertising indication";
cfgAdv.AdvertiserAddress = "A1B2C3D4E5F6";
cfgAdv.AdvertiserAddressType = "Random";
cfgAdv.AdvertisingData = "0201060709546573744245020A00";
pduBits = bleLLAdvertisingChannelPDU(cfgAdv);
wf = bleWaveformGenerator(pduBits, Mode="LE1M", SamplesPerSymbol=8, ChannelIndex=37);

PDUType values: "Advertising indication", "Scan request", "Scan response", "Connection indication", "Advertising direct indication", "Advertising non connectable indication". Addresses: 12-char hex string (no colons). AdvertisingData: hex string (length-type-value AD structs).

Data Channel PDU

cfgData = bleLLDataChannelPDUConfig;
cfgData.LLID = "Data (start fragment/complete)";
cfgData.SequenceNumber = 1;
cfgData.NESN = 0;
cfgData.MoreData = false;
payload = dec2hex(randi([0 255], 50, 1))';  % 50-byte hex payload
payload = reshape(payload', 1, []);
pduBits = bleLLDataChannelPDU(cfgData, payload);
wf = bleWaveformGenerator(pduBits, Mode="LE2M", SamplesPerSymbol=8, ChannelIndex=15);

LLID values: "Data (continuation fragment/empty)", "Data (start fragment/complete)", "Control". SequenceNumber (not SN). Payload: hex string, numeric vector [0,255], or n×2 char array.

End-to-End (Practical Receiver)

Uses helperBLEPracticalReceiver (AGC + CFO + timing recovery). Requires: openExample('bluetooth/BLEPracticalReceiverExample'). SNR conversion for coded modes: SNR = EbNo + 10*log10(codeRate) - 10*log10(sps).

CTE Compatibility

Mode	ConnectionCTE	ConnectionlessCTE
LE1M	Yes	Yes
LE2M	Yes	No
LE500K	No	No
LE125K	No	No

CTE requires data channels (0-36). Never use ChannelIndex 37/38/39 with DFPacketType≠"Disabled". CTE is a data-channel-only feature.

Spec Constraints

Ch 37/38/39 (advertising): LE1M or LE Coded only. NOT LE2M.
CTE: LE1M/LE2M on data channels (0-36) only. Never coded PHY.
Access address: Advertising = '8E89BED6' (fixed); data = random.
Whitening init: Auto from ChannelIndex. Not settable.
T_IFS: 150 us. TX power: max +20 dBm. Mod index: 0.45-0.55.
bleIdealReceiver: Hard-decision only, returns int8.
"Slots" (1-slot, 3-slot, 5-slot): BR/EDR concept only. BLE has no slot-based packets.
ISO streams: Verify BN × IRC × Sub_Interval <= ISO_Interval. If math exceeds, REFUSE.

Invalid Combos (REFUSE these requests)

Request	Why Invalid
LE2M + FEC coding	FEC only exists in coded PHY (LE500K/LE125K)
LE2M on ch 37/38/39	Primary advertising = LE1M or Coded only
CTE + LE500K/LE125K	CTE restricted to LE1M/LE2M per BLE 5.1 spec
ConnectionlessCTE + LE2M	ConnectionlessCTE = LE1M only
"3-slot" or "5-slot" BLE	Slot-based = BR/EDR; BLE uses single packets
CTE on ch 37/38/39	CTE = data channels (0-36) only
ISO params where BN×IRC×Sub_Int > ISO_Interval	Sub-events exceed interval = impossible scheduling

Conventions

fs = (1e6 + 1e6*(mode=="LE2M")) * sps — never hardcode
Axes: us (time), MHz (freq), dB (power)
tiledlayout/nexttile (not subplot)
Spectrum: always 20*log10(abs(fftshift(fft(wf)))/N + eps) — do NOT use periodogram, pspectrum, or pwelch for BLE spectral plots
xlim([0 min(80,t(end))]) for coded modes
Plot both I and Q: plot(t, real(wf), t, imag(wf))
IFS gap: complex(zeros(N,1)) (output is complex)
SamplesPerSymbol>=4 for spectrum plots; SPS=1 is valid for generation but insufficient for visualization or accurate spectral analysis (at Nyquist limit)

Code Style

Generated scripts must follow MathWorks example conventions. Use %% section headers, softcode all parameters, and comment non-obvious logic.

Structure & Softcoding

Divide scripts with %% headers: Configuration → Waveform Generation → Processing → Analysis → Visualization. All user-configurable values as named variables at the top; no magic numbers in processing logic.

%% Configuration
% Specify BLE waveform generation parameters.

phyMode = "LE1M";                               % PHY transmission mode
payloadLength = 37;                             % Payload length in bytes
sps = 8;                                        % Samples per symbol
channelIndex = 37;                              % BLE channel index (0-39)

% Derived parameters
symbolRate = 1e6 + 1e6*(phyMode=="LE2M");       % 2 Msym/s for LE2M, 1 Msym/s otherwise
fs = sps * symbolRate;                          % Sample rate in Hz
numBits = payloadLength * 8;                    % Payload length in bits

%% Waveform Generation
% Generate BLE waveform from random payload bits.

messageBits = randi([0 1], numBits, 1);
waveform = bleWaveformGenerator(messageBits, ...
    Mode=phyMode, SamplesPerSymbol=sps, ChannelIndex=channelIndex);

Comments

Inline (right-aligned): units, range, or brief purpose — % Eb/No in dB
Block (above 2-5 lines): intent or why — % IFS gap must be complex (bleWaveformGenerator output is complex)
Constraints: spec reference — % LE2M uses 2 Msym/s (only mode with 2x symbol rate)
Do NOT comment self-evident lines, every line mechanically, or closing end statements

Naming

camelCase: messageBits, txWaveform, symbolRate, channelIndex
Descriptive loop counters: countMode, pktIdx (not i, j)
Named constants: bitsPerByte = 8, tIFS = 150e-6
Multi-init: [numErrors, perCount] = deal(0, 0)

Gotchas

Mistake	Fix
`bleWaveformConfig(...)`	Does not exist. Use `bleWaveformGenerator(bits, NV...)` directly
`bluetoothWaveformGenerator` for BLE	BR/EDR only. Use `bleWaveformGenerator`
`comm.BLEReceiver`	Does not exist. Use `bleIdealReceiver`
`symbolRate=1e6` for LE2M	LE2M = 2e6
`'PHYMode'` as param name	Use `'Mode'`
`'LECODED'` as mode	Use `"LE500K"` or `"LE125K"`
Config object as 1st arg	Must be binary col vector `randi([0 1],N,1)`
Empty `[]` bits	Minimum 1 byte
Real `zeros()` for IFS	Use `complex(zeros(N,1))`
CTE + coded modes	CTE only on LE1M/LE2M
`ConnectionlessCTE` + LE2M	LE1M only
LE2M on ch 37/38/39	Spec violation. Use LE1M or Coded
`CTELength`/`CTEType` as NV args	Not valid. Use `DFPacketType`
`bleAngleEstimate(wf, NV...)`	Use `bleAngleEstimate(iqSamples, bleAngleEstimateConfig)`
`bleWaveformGenerator` for RF-PHY	Use `bluetoothTestWaveformConfig` + `bluetoothTestWaveform`
AWGN without oversampling correction	Use `convertSNR(EbNo,"ebno","snr",SamplesPerSymbol=sps)`; pass explicit power to `awgn` (never use `"measured"`)
`bleIdealReceiver` with impairments	Use `helperBLEPracticalReceiver`
Eb/No for coded modes without code rate	`SNR = EbNo + 10log10(codeRate) - 10log10(sps)`
SPS=1 without warning	SPS=1 is at Nyquist limit — warn user: no spectral analysis, marginal decode performance
Timing ppm offset without `resample`	Apply clock drift via `resample(wf, 1e6+ppm, 1e6)` or fractional delay filter
Conformance Df1/Df2 without PRBS9	Use `comm.PNSequence` (z^9+z^5+1) for TP/TRM/CA/BV-05-C; separate stable-bit (Df1) from alternating-bit (Df2) patterns
`periodogram`/`pwelch` for BLE spectrum	Use manual `fftshift(fft(wf))` — skill convention
`SN` as property name	Use `SequenceNumber` on `bleLLDataChannelPDUConfig`
Address with colons `"A1:B2:..."`	Use 12-char hex string without colons: `"A1B2C3D4E5F6"`
`PDUType="ADV_IND"`	Use full string: `"Advertising indication"`
Binary vector as AdvertisingData	Use hex string: `"0201060709..."` (length-type-value)

RF-PHY Compliance Testing Reference

Overview

Bluetooth LE RF-PHY testing verifies transmitter and receiver performance per the RF-PHY.TS.p15 test specification. MATLAB provides two approaches:

bluetoothTestWaveformConfig + bluetoothTestWaveform -- Generate standardized test packets with predefined payload sequences
bluetoothRFPHYTestConfig -- Configure specific test parameters including test IDs, power levels, and measurement settings

Transmitter Tests

Test	TestID	Purpose
Output power	RF-PHY/TRM/BV-01-C	Verify max peak/average power
Inband emissions	RF-PHY/TRM/BV-03-C	Spectral emissions check
Modulation characteristics	RF-PHY/TRM/BV-09-C	Signal modulation quality
Carrier frequency offset	RF-PHY/TRM/BV-06-C	Frequency stability
Tx power stability	(CTE-related)	AoD signal power stability

When to Use Which Function

Scenario	Function
Generate arbitrary BLE waveforms	`bleWaveformGenerator`
Generate RF-PHY standardized test packets	`bluetoothTestWaveform`
Configure RF-PHY test parameters	`bluetoothRFPHYTestConfig`
Validate test setup	`bluetoothTestWaveformValidate`

Key Differences: bleWaveformGenerator vs bluetoothTestWaveform

Feature	bleWaveformGenerator	bluetoothTestWaveform
Input	Raw message bits	Config object
Payload	User-defined	Standardized (PRBS9, PRBS15, etc.)
Use case	General waveform gen	Compliance testing
CTE support	DFPacketType param	PacketType in config
