 I am developing BLE Mesh applications based on Mesh 5.0, how to control the radio range? like 5 m, 10m, 15 m etc. 
 Regards,

&lt;p&gt;It is not possible to set the radio range to a specific number of meters. You can increase/decrease the range by changing the tx power. If you like to change the&amp;nbsp;tx power during normal mesh activity or provisioning using ADV-bearer, you can use &lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.meshsdk.v5.0.0/group__ADVERTISER.html#ga5018951ad5b1e191441f826b7b960189" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;advertiser_tx_power_set&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span&gt;().&amp;nbsp;To change tx power when the device is getting provisioned using GATT-bearer, you would need to call&amp;nbsp;sd_ble_gap_tx_power_set() after you call ble_stack_init().&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
