The signal strength depends on more parameters than just the distance. Obstacles like walls, windows etc., reflections, the location of the receiver/transmitter, if it&amp;#39;s in a pocket, close to the skin, lying on a table, antenna design etc.. All in all this is just a matter of testing. Try and see if the RSSI values in an environment similar to where it&amp;#39;s supposed to operate give you sufficient info to calculate the distance.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
