Bluetooth: Throughput
#####################

The ISO Connected Channels Benchmark sample measures and reports packet loss
and sync loss in connected ISO channels.


Overview
********

The sample transmits data between the *central* and the *peripheral*
and measures the quality of the ISO channels.

The application can be used as both a central and a peripheral, and the mode
can easily be changed.

Requirements
************

* BlueZ running on the host, or
* A board with Bluetooth Low Energy 5.2 support
* A Bluetooth Controller and board that supports setting
  CONFIG_BT_CTLR_CENTRAL_ISO=y
* A remote board running the same sample as the reversed role that supports
  setting CONFIG_BT_CTLR_PERIPHERAL_ISO=y

Building and running
********************

This sample can be found under
:zephyr_file:`samples/bluetooth/iso_connected_benchmark` in the Zephyr tree.

See :ref:`bluetooth samples section <bluetooth-samples>` for details.


Testing
=======

After programming the sample to both boards, test it by performing the following
steps:

1. Connect to both boards with a terminal emulator (for example, PuTTY or
   minicom).
#. Reset both boards.
#. In one of the terminal emulators, type "c" to start the application on the
   connected board in the central role.
#. In the other terminal emulator, type "p" to start the application in the
   peripheral role.
#. Optionally modify the central ISO settings using the console.
#. Observe that the central and the peripheral connects.
#. Observe the receive statistics on the devices (the connected ISO channels may
   by uni- or bidirectional).

Sample output
==============
The peripheral will output overall data (since boot),
current connection (since the CIG was connected) and latest 1000 received
packets::

The central will ask if any changes to the current settings are wanted.
If y/Y is chosen, then it will create a prompt to changes the settings,
otherwise continue with the current settings. The central will then start
scanning for and connecting to a peer device running the sample as peripheral
role. Once connected, the central will output overall data (since boot),
current connection (since the CIG was connected) and latest 1000 received
packets::
