Questions about supporting and enabling beamforming (AEGHB-716) #183

Open TryTwoTop opened 4 months ago

TryTwoTop commented 4 months ago

There are two questions in this issue.

You can answer them one by one, or we'll create separate issues if requested.

  1. Does the ESP32-S3 support beamforming? (I can't find anything about beamforming in the ESP32-S3's datasheet and esp-idf GitHub repo)

  2. Does the ESP32-C6 have beamforming automatically enabled only when communicating with 802.11ax? (You can find 802.11ax beamformee support in the Wi-Fi Feature of the ESP32-C6 Datasheet)

  1. Not supported
  2. This can be set by wifi_csi_acquire_config_t in esp_wifi_he_types.h. By the way, the current code cannot be directly run on the c6 chip.
