Hi all
I'm trying to develop an application in 802.11 field, short distances. The scenario consists of WiFi end points at different distances and the master point must be able to detect which point is the closest one. The distances are about 10 meters and can reach a maximum of 100 m. The antennas I'm going to use have a gain of 11-13 dB.
Theoretically I know the dependence between the received power and the distance. In reality, is it possible to distinguish a station at 20m from another one at 40m in outdoor environment?
Some hints about the chipset I can use to develop the end points (I think that I should take care of the resolution in detecting the received power from the remote end points)?
Thank you
