Is their any relation advertising_interval with range of device?

Hi forum,

I am working on nrf52832 using sdk15.0.0. using project ble_app_beacon.

In this project I am setting tx_power 0dbm,4dbm,-4dbm and -8dbm.while setting this tx_power with changing interval.

When I am setting adertising interval 10sec, I am getting less range and when adv_interval to 1sec it will get me long range.

 please help me how to solve this problem.

     If you are sending over a long distance, then due to interference/noise some packets might get lost. If you are only sending 1 packet each 10 second, then it might take longer time for the scanner to see the packet, since some packets get lost and the scanner might also be scanning on the wrong channel.
