I've been trying to see if I can set up a 802.15.4 network and have other 802.15.4 compliant devices join the network. I however am noticing that when the other device expects to get an ACK, it only waits 50ms before retransmitting. Now I don't have the ACK working yet, but in my system, due to scheduling and so on with the serial port data, I don't even start processing the incoming message until 30-40 ms after it has arrived. By the time the CCA, TX, and DATA messages have been sent I'm up to about 120ms. At this rate, my system gets tied up processing the message and the retransmits so it won't be able to send out an ACK before the other side gives up entirely.
Does this sound right compared to what others are seeing on PCs? I was thinking of trying to eliminate some of the waiting between PHY messages by combining them into one message so it only has to be acked once. This would at least eliminate the 20-30ms of waiting for the response to each message. Any thoughts?
