I am currently using mica2 and mica2dot motes, programming in tinyOS 2.x. I read that it is possible to get the strength of the received signal in mica2 motes.
Here is what is written in the TinyOS FAQ: "Can I get the received signal strength in TinyOS? Yes for Mica2; kind-of for Mica. Mica2: The strength field (TOS_Msg->strength) of the TOS_Msg structure is filled in with data from the radio's Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) pin. The RSSI data is inversely proportional to the signal's strength. You can find out exactly how to interpret the RSSI data by looking at the RSSI Output section of the Chipcon CC1000 radio's datasheet: http://www.chipcon.com/files/CC1000_Data_Sheet_2_1.pdf"; Although, I did not understand how that should be done. And the link mentioned there is actually broken. Could someone give me an extract of a code, as an example of how to get my received message's signal strength? Can it be done inside the event "message_t* Receive.receive" (Receive is linked to AMReceiverC) ? Thanks, Fernando. _______________________________________________ Tinyos-help mailing list [email protected] https://www.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-help
