Hi all.

Im trying to convert in dBm the values obtained from the app:

<http://tinyos.stanford.edu/tinyos-wiki/index.php/Rssi_Demo>

In my case appears the next values:

Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = 40
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = 41
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = 40
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = 40
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = 41

Because is very close both motes TelosB (Sending Mote and Rssi Base )

In the TinyOS tutorial appears the next: "...that this app prints only the
raw RSSI values ..."

On the other hand I have the Data sheet of the RF Transceiver CC2420:

<http://web.stanford.edu/class/cs244e/papers/cc2420.pdf>

But is not clear to me How I can do the conversion from raw RSSI to dBm.


I read, someone in the TinyOS mail-list, who wrote that is only necessary
substract -45:

But I suppose is not a exact calculation.

I'll be grateful if somebody can generously explain how is the correct way
to convert raw RSSI values from a TelosB to a dBm.

Thanks in advance.

Alex.

Dear All,

I am getting RSSI value in tinyos like:

Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = -14
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = -1
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = 2
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = -2
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = 2
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = 0
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = -2
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = 2
Rssi Message received from node 1: Rssi = 2

and I want to conform that is this value is in Dbm?

if not than how can i convert it?

regards,

-ashok
