1 RSSI Measurement and Comparison
The purpose of RSSI measurement is to help users get the accurate value of the currently received signal strength. The
measurement value of the RSSI of a received signal can be regarded to some extent as the equivalence of the communication
distance at a constant transmission power.
In the procedure of RSSI comparison, it compares the current real-time RSSI value to a threshold to generate a signal indicating
whether the RSSI is valid. This indication signal can be mapped to the RSSI_VLD interrupt for application usage or sent to the
chip to implement super-low power (SLP) receiver.
