Hi all, I'm new to TinyOS and have some short questions... thanks in advance for your help.
I'm mew to TinyOS and I'm trying to implement an IEEE 802.15.4 interoperable MAC-Headercompression Scheme for the CC2420 radio. (2 months time left... ;-]) Now: -I use TinyOS 2.1 that should forward all received packets via SPI-Bus to the memory, where my header-compression-scheme can access them and modify them, before their headers are blown up to full 802.15.4 format and passed on to the next higher layer (or discarded). Right? -TinyOS 2.1 implements address-checks in software but still requires the 15.4 fcf. I can change that right? Since the radio will transmit anything in the buffer - no questions asked. (Whether it makes sense, that's my part to fix) -I was wondering if there is some form of comprehensible overview of the internal workings of the TinyOS-Radio-Stack. I'm really confused by all the files, statemachines, interfaces, implementations and precompile directives... I don't even know where to start programming, let alone which interfaces I can reuse or need to redefine... -Lastly: I'll slip my HC-mechanism under the Csma-Layer as lowest layer in order not to disturb any of the functions running on top... that should be the smartest way to do it and guarantee that any higher layer works fine (assuming my HC works and passes full 802.15.4. Headers up)... any objections, or problems I missed because I'm still struggling to grasp how TinyOS works?? Thanks a lot... I know this is kind imprecise, but my next questions will be more to the point...
