get RSSI on nRF52840 with NCS

[peter_liu]

I'm working on NCS 1.6.1.

I'd like to confirm if my method to get the RSSI is correct.

i test with a sample "peripheral_uart"

after BT connected, i printk the (NRF_RADIO->RSSISAMPLE)

the result like:

42

40

46

39

is it the correct RSSI? (then just to add a minus, -42, -40, ,,,)

It is the connection handle as mentioned in the documentation for that API

 * For an LE transport, a Connection_Handle is used as the Handle command
 * parameter and return parameter. The meaning of the RSSI metric is an
 * absolute receiver signal strength value in dBm to ±6 dB accuracy. If the RSSI
 * cannot be read, the RSSI metric shall be set to 127.
