TX_power_service

Hi,

I am new in BLE.

Can anybody please explain me, how does tx_power_service works.

And how does it calculates the RSSI value.

Thanks in advance.

  • Hi,

    The power service simply contain the output power used by the device, in case a peer want to know.

    The RRSI value contain data about the received signal strength by packets received from the peer device. The RSSI value will be influenced by factors such as orientation of devices, obstacles, and range, due to this it typically have limited usage in practical life, since it doesn't only depend on range.

    Best regards,
    Kenneth
