Description

I am trying to understand better how the SIK radio determines whether there is a valid link or not. Are there messages that the radios send periodically to one another? If this is the case, where in the code could I find the details of these codes (i.e., what is transmitted, and how frequently?)

Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Search the SiK C firmware for periodic radio transmissions and link-validity checks, then trace the relevant message definitions and timing. Done means documenting where these checks and messages are implemented, what they transmit, and how frequently they occur.
