I got the solution.using network analyzer like "commviewforwifi" you can find the signal strength from all the other nodes with out any transferring of files. this network analyzers captures the packets on all the channels and report the signal strength it is perceiveing from all the other nodes.

As u said there are n*(n-1) values. How can i > measure them?? Sudha, Most WLAN drivers indicate the signal strength of the received packets. You can use the utilities provided by your WLAN card's vendor to get this information. Other applications like netstumbler may also display this information. I don't know why you need all the n*(n-1) values, but if you really need all those numbers, choose one of the devices as the transmitter and start a large file transfer or any long data transfer. Then measure the signal strength at all the other (n-1) nodes. Change the transmitter to the next node and repeat the measurement. Doing this for all the nodes will give you the n*(n-1) values.
