The LISNR® Radius® 3.0 SDK utilizes Tone Profiles when creating Transmitters, Receivers, and Transceivers. Please see below for an overview:
Tone Profiles
Zone66: Long range, lower throughput. Optimized for reverberation and increased reliability. Typically used for Proximity Engagements, Broadcast and Second Screen implementations.
Throughput of 66.6 bits/second.
Maximum of 255 bytes for a single transmission
Average distance for mobile devices: ~20 ft (can be increased using external speakers)
Point1000: Short range, high throughput. Optimized for closed distances. Typically used for Authentication, Payments, Access, and Security implementations.
Throughput of 1000 bits/second
Maximum of 3000 bytes for a single transmission.
Average distance for mobile devices: ~2-3 ft
Point2000: Short range, high throughput. Optimized for closed distances. Typically used for Authentication, Payments, Access, and Security implementations.
Throughput of 2000 bits/second
Maximum of 3000 bytes for a single transmission.
Average distance for mobile devices: ~1-1.5 ft
Output level/volume determines the range of a LISNR® Radius® Tone. In basic terms, increasing the volume increases the range, while decreasing the volume shortens the range.
Both the Radius® Android and iOS SDKs have the ability to set a transmission volume during transmission (defaults to 100% volume output).
