otPlatRadioEnableSrcMatch
void otPlatRadioEnableSrcMatch( otInstance *aInstance, bool aEnable )
Enable/Disable source address match feature.
The source address match feature controls how the radio layer decides the "frame pending" bit for acks sent in response to data request commands from children.
If disabled, the radio layer must set the "frame pending" on all acks to data request commands.
If enabled, the radio layer uses the source address match table to determine whether to set or clear the "frame pending" bit in an ack to a data request command.
The source address match table provides the list of children for which there is a pending frame. Either a short address or an extended/long address can be added to the source address match table.

otPlatRadioReceiveAt
otError otPlatRadioReceiveAt( otInstance *aInstance, uint8_t aChannel, otRadioTime32 aStart, uint32_t aDuration )
Schedules a radio reception window at a specific time and duration.
This function is an optional platform API used to schedule a future reception window on a specific channel for features such as Coordinated Sampled Listening (CSL) or Thread Direct.
OpenThread supports two approaches for timed reception:
- Software-driven (default and recommended): OpenThread's
SubMaclayer manages all timed RX internally using software timers and standardotPlatRadioReceive()andotPlatRadioSleep()calls. In this mode, the radio platform does NOT need to implementotPlatRadioReceiveAt(), and MUST omit theOT_RADIO_CAPS_RECEIVE_TIMINGcapability fromotPlatRadioGetCaps(). - Platform-offloaded (optional): The radio platform explicitly declares
OT_RADIO_CAPS_RECEIVE_TIMINGviaotPlatRadioGetCaps()and implementsotPlatRadioReceiveAt()to handle window timing directly in the platform layer or hardware.
Because OpenThread's built-in SubMac software implementation is comprehensive, robust, and fully tested, it is strongly recommended that radio platform implementers rely on the default software-driven mode and do NOT implement otPlatRadioReceiveAt(), unless there is a clear justification for offloading timed reception to the radio platform.
If the radio platform implements this function, the following rules and behaviors are expected:
If this function is called while the radio is disabled (OT_RADIO_STATE_DISABLED), the radio platform MUST return OT_ERROR_INVALID_STATE.
When the radio is enabled, this function can be called from any radio state (OT_RADIO_STATE_SLEEP, OT_RADIO_STATE_RECEIVE, or OT_RADIO_STATE_TRANSMIT). The radio platform driver MUST handle the scheduling internally: calling this function merely registers a (future) time window for the radio to sample/receive and MUST NOT immediately force the radio into Receive mode at the time of the call (unless the window is already active).
The radio platform MUST execute the scheduled reception as follows:
- Operational Precedence and Radio Sleep:
- Timed reception scheduled by this function is only applicable when the radio is in the Sleep state (whether the radio is put to sleep explicitly via
otPlatRadioSleep()or manages sleep state automatically on its own). - Any active radio operation, such as transmission (
otPlatRadioTransmit()) or continuous reception (otPlatRadioReceive()), takes precedence over timed reception.
- Timed reception scheduled by this function is only applicable when the radio is in the Sleep state (whether the radio is put to sleep explicitly via
- Starting the Reception Window:
- At the scheduled start time
aStart, the radio receiver MUST enter Receive mode on channelaChannel, provided the radio is not busy with another operation. This MUST behave the same as ifotPlatRadioReceive()were called at that time. - The OpenThread stack already accounts for and includes any necessary radio ramp-up and receiver settling time when computing
aStart. Therefore, the radio platform driver does not need to adjustaStartor schedule ramp-up ahead of time.
- At the scheduled start time
- Ending the Reception Window:
- At the end of the duration (
aStart+aDuration), the radio MUST automatically transition back to Sleep unless it is actively receiving a frame. - If frame reception has started (e.g., SHR detected) before the duration expires, the radio receiver MUST remain on until the frame reception completes (either successfully or with an error) and any subsequent acknowledgment transmission is finished, after which the radio transitions to Sleep.
- At the end of the duration (
- Subsequent Schedules and Overlapping Windows:
- If the start time of a previously scheduled reception window has not yet arrived, a subsequent call to
otPlatRadioReceiveAt()MUST cancel and replace the previous schedule. - If a previous reception window has already started and is currently active:
- A subsequent call to
otPlatRadioReceiveAt()with a future start time MUST NOT abort or interrupt the ongoing reception. The new window is scheduled to start at its specified time. - At the start time of the new window (or immediately if its start time has already arrived), the radio MUST honor the new window:
- Channel: If the new window specifies the same channel, reception SHOULD continue seamlessly without toggling the receiver state off and on. If the new window specifies a different channel, the radio MUST switch to the new channel. However, if the radio has started receiving a frame on the previous channel (e.g., SHR detected) or is transmitting an acknowledgment, it MUST complete the frame reception and any acknowledgment transmission before switching to the new channel (or transitioning to Sleep if the new window has already expired).
- End time: The reception window MUST end according to the new window (
aStart+aDuration). The new window always dictates when reception ends, replacing any previous end time. Note that this behavior is common and often used to shrink an ongoing sample window.
- A subsequent call to
- If a new window starts immediately upon the end of the previous window (back-to-back), the transition SHOULD occur seamlessly without cycling the radio through Sleep.
- If the start time of a previously scheduled reception window has not yet arrived, a subsequent call to
- Interactions with Sleep and Other Operations:
- If the radio is busy executing another operation (such as transmission or continuous reception) when the scheduled window starts or while it is active, that operation takes precedence. Once that operation completes and the radio returns to Sleep, if the scheduled window is still ongoing (before
aStart+aDuration), the radio SHOULD start or resume the scheduled timed reception by entering Receive mode onaChannelfor the remaining duration of the window. - Calls to
otPlatRadioSleep()MUST NOT cancel a scheduled reception window, nor abort an ongoing active timed reception window. If the radio is already in the Sleep state and performing an active scheduled timed reception, subsequent calls tootPlatRadioSleep()MUST NOT interrupt or alter its operation. - Calls to
otPlatRadioDisable()MUST immediately abort and cancel any pending (scheduled) or ongoing active timed reception window.
- If the radio is busy executing another operation (such as transmission or continuous reception) when the scheduled window starts or while it is active, that operation takes precedence. Once that operation completes and the radio returns to Sleep, if the scheduled window is still ongoing (before

otPlatRadioSleep
otError otPlatRadioSleep( otInstance *aInstance )
Transition the radio to the Sleep state (turn off the radio).
If the radio is already in the Sleep state, this function MUST return OT_ERROR_NONE with no effect.
If otPlatRadioSleep() is called while the radio is in the middle of receiving a frame or transmitting an ACK (e.g., during AIFS/turnaround wait or actively transmitting the ACK frame), the radio MUST complete the ongoing operation (finish frame reception and/or ACK transmission) and transition to Sleep immediately thereafter. In this scenario:
- The radio MUST return
OT_ERROR_NONEto indicate that the sleep request has been accepted and scheduled. - Upon finishing the frame reception (and any associated ACK transmission), the radio driver MUST invoke
otPlatRadioReceiveDone()to deliver the received frame (or report reception error) before transitioning to Sleep.
If any subsequent radio state transition function (e.g., otPlatRadioReceive() or otPlatRadioTransmit()) is called while a scheduled transition to Sleep is pending, the pending Sleep transition MUST be canceled/superseded, and the radio MUST transition to the newly requested state upon completing the ongoing reception and/or ACK transmission.

otPlatRadioUpdateCslSampleTime
void otPlatRadioUpdateCslSampleTime( otInstance *aInstance, otRadioTime32 aCslSampleTime )
Update CSL sample time in radio driver.
Sample time is stored in radio driver as a copy to calculate phase when sending ACK with CSL IE. The CSL sample (window) of the CSL receiver extends before and after the sample time. The CSL sample time marks a timestamp in the CSL sample window when a frame should be received in "ideal conditions" if there would be no inaccuracy/clock-drift.
