Feature Configuration Guide for NXP-based Wireless Modules on i.MX 8M Quad EVK
2.8.3 Set the RF bandwidth
This section shows how to set the RF bandwidth to 20/40/80 MHz. The test requires first
to load the driver modules to bring-up the NXP-based wireless module.
Step 1 - Enable the RF test mode
root@imx8mqevk:~# echo "rf_test_mode=1" >> /proc/mwlan/adapterX/config
Verify that the output value of rf_test_mode is 1.
root@imx8mqevk:~# cat /proc/mwlan/adapterX/config
Step 2 - Set the RF bandwidth
For example:
root@imx8mqevk:~# echo "bw=0" >> /proc/mwlan/adapterX/config
Where:
Parameter Definition
bw
RF bandwidth
• 0 = 20 MHz
• 1 = 40 MH
• 4 = 80 MHz
2.8.4 Set the RF channel
This section shows how to set the RF channel. The test requires first to load the driver
modules to bring-up the NXP-based wireless module.
Step 1 - Enable the RF test mode
root@imx8mqevk:~# echo "rf_test_mode=1" >> /proc/mwlan/adapterX/config
Verify that the output value of rf_test_mode is 1.
root@imx8mqevk:~# cat /proc/mwlan/adapterX/config
Step 2 - Set the RF channel
For example, to set channel 6:
root@imx8mqevk:~# echo "channel=6" >> /proc/mwlan/adapterX/config
