Thanks for your advice but I got another alternative. I am using Aluminium Foil to cover the antenna to reduce the signal strength and it worked to some extent. I think if we able to create a cover over telos motes antenna of certain thickness then we can reduce it length accordingly. As per my experience the strength is proportional to thickness of metal covering.

Try getting some metal (NOT vynal) screen at a home improvement store and put
the sensor in that. Connect the screen to a ground (a water pipe is good).
That will give you a Faraday cage. Alter it with windows in the sides or
grounding/ungrounding to get the desired signal strength.
It's still not very scientific, but it should work.
I am still interested in any real research in this area.
