Transceiver Protocol

[Left_Jab]

Hi,

I would like to know which protocols are being used nowadays with the transceiver HopeRF RFM12 (not 12b). I intend to use it in a wireless mesh network.

Also, please let me know whether SNAP (Scalable Node Address Protocol) is still a popular choice or whether it has become obsolete now.

Thanks!

Who cares what's  popular or not - use what is most appropriate for your application.

Thanks for the reply.

I was also tempted to come up with my own protocol, but the thing is I would like my system to be compatible with other devices (i.e. there should be interoperability).

In my previous question, I did not mention the specifications of the device I am using: it runs on 433 MHz and uses FSK. So I'd like to know whether a protocol exists for any device having these particular specifications.

maybe a good starting point...

I already had the datasheet. It says nothing about the protocols being commonly used today.

you have to make international poll on that.
