1. Exercise: Reading the RSSI Value
One of the most frequently used measures in wireless communications is the “Received Signal Strength Indicator” or short RSSI. The RSSI is a measure related to the power of the signal. In contrast to the “Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR)”, which is also a measure of the power, the RSSI is not standardized. But, in most implementations the RSSI is proportional to the SNR. The SNR is the power of the transmitted signal divided by the power of the noise measured in decibel (dB).
The aim of this exercise is to create a program that measures the RSSI using the CC1200.
