RE: [smartBridges] AirBridge dBm RSSI Readings

[sB Tech Support]

We do not have the accurate value. But you can refer to this doc http://www.wildpackets.com/elements/whitepapers/Converting_Signal_Strength.pdf for reference and understanding. Anyone has better source?   Alex sB Tech Support         -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ole Bj�rklund Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2003 5:40 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [smartBridges] AirBridge dBm RSSI Readings     Does you have an accurate value of what the dBm should be when getting 40 from the unit??� (like 20 30 40 whatever dbm?)   Regards Oleb     -----Original Message----- From: sB Tech Support [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 13. august 2003 22:42 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] AirBridge dBm RSSI Readings       The RSSI display in percent will be more accurate to indicate how strong the signal is. The internal formula to dbm conversion is not accurate (eg.100% is -10dbm) and that is the reason we came out the option to allow user to define their own conversion table. SO you can set like 100% equal to -45dbm, etc.. which is similar to other vendor dbm reading.   Alex sB Tech Support         -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2003 3:34 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Re: [smartBridges] AirBridge dBm RSSI Readings   Has there been a resolution to this yet? I just did an install that is reporting a signal level of -10dbm.   The latest firmware allows you to punch in your own values for dbm levels, but this hardly helps to provide an accurate measurement of signal level.   On Fri, 25 Jul 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:   > This may have been discussed before, but I missed it.
