This project contains C simple examples for DWM1001 hardware and its derivatives, such as the DWM1001-DEV board.
The DWM1001 module is a Ultra Wideband (UWB) and Bluetooth hardware based on DecaWave's DW1000 IC and Nordic Semiconductor nrF52832 SoC. It allows to build a scalable Two-Way-Ranging (TWR) RTLS systems with up to thousands of tags.
The DWM1001-DEV is a development board for the DWM1001 module. It contains an integrated Jlink to facilitate development and debbuging. For more information about DWM1001, please visit www.decawave.com.
The C simple examples allow user to discover the key functionalities offered by the DWM1001 and UWB. These examples are customized for DWM1001-DEV, and some modifications will be necessary to port them to other DWM1001 based hardware (in particular LED and button interface)

The examples are ready to use with the following IDE :
- Segger Embedded Studio (SES)
Each example contains a emproject project file for SES. The examples compile and load cleanly to the DWM1001.
The project was created with the SES version V3.34a.
SES has a free license for nrF52832 development. Consequently, this IDE can be used without any limitation for DWM1001 development.

When using SES IDE, you will need to install the following package :
Package
CMSIS 5 CMSIS-CORE Support Package (version 5.02)
CMSIS-CORE Support Package (version 4.05)
Nordic Semiconductor nRF CPU Support Package (version 1.06)
They can be install from SES itself, through the package manager in the tools menu.
The SS-TWR scheme can be implemented using two DWM1001 modules, the first one programmed as an initiator and the second one as a responder.
This example contains the source code for the initiator. The initiator will send a frame, wait for the response from the receiver, calculate the distance and output it on the UART (can be observed on a serial terminal)

The application function is detailed in the main.c and the ss_init_main.c files.
Calibration may be necessary in order to have an accurate measurement. It can be done by adjusting the antenna delay which is hardware dependent.
This example contains the source code for the responder. The receiver will receive a frame from the initiator and send the corresponding answer.

This example implements a TWI between the LIS2DH12 and the nrF52832. The blue led will be on when a motion is detected by the LIS2DH12. It also reports the accelerometer state on the UART.
