Hi

I am using nrf24L01 transceiver in my wsn node.In this transceiver there is no support for RSSI. In this case, is there any method to find the distance between two wsn node ?Is there any scheme like TOF (Time of Flight) will be useful or not. Pls suggest your opinion.

Thanks

[/COLOR]Hi Hikaan,

I've been having the same issue with nFR24L01. All my researches have led me to solutions using only RSSI and even scouring recent conference proceedings like this one **broken link removed** didn't bring me any luck. I actually "shamelessly" :roll: opted to temporarily go with the TI Launchpad+Anaren RF Boosterpack, to go around this issue. Hope you find something I didn't see. If so, please share ... That would help a lot.

Thanks.

PS: I found this link where they use this chip and described a method using Sensors localization using coordinates and transmission power. I'm more of a computer guy and I understand very little of the radio jargon. You might want to check it out though.
