[Tinyos-help] Best TOSH_DATA_LENGTH ?

[Rémi Villé]

Hi,

TOSH_DATA_LENGTH is about 20-30 byte, depending of the mote. I have read
that we can increase this value to something like 100 byte.
But what would be the reason to choose a 100 byte payload rather than a 30
byte one ?
I mean if I have 100 byte to send, should I send 4 packet of 30 byte ? Maybe
because if there's one error in the message (CRC detection) I should
retransmit 100 byte rather than 30 byte...

I don't know which is the best way to choose a good TASH_DATA_LENGTH
(assuming that I have an infinite number of byte to send), maybe by
experimentation or by analyzing? or maybe the default length has been chosen
with this considerations?

Thanks,

Rémi
