myRIO Radio Signal Strength Indicator

[MartonLitkei]

This VI shows how to get wireless quality information using cat /proc/net/wireless (on wifi enabled NI myRIO devices)

[Krishnasatya]

Hello sir by using this vi can we calculate signal strength of any received signal like Analog/ Digital demodulated signal ???

[Krishnasatya]

Is there any other way to calculate power of a signal ??

[MartonLitkei]

Dear Krishnasatya,

This program gets the RSSI information from the OS running on the myRIO, which gets it from the WiFi chipset as a parameter using the driver that handles it. It means that this RSSI information is specific to the WiFi connection on the myRIO and cannot be used for other arbitrary signals.

If you would like to calculate RSSI for some other wireless signals it is definitely doable, I suggest you have a look at http://www.ni.com/rf/ and/or consult with your local Sales Engineer.

thank you very much sir

In windows OS , we have netsh command to list available WiFi SSID's  ,Can we do the same in myRIO ?

I want to list ALL SSID's and their signal quality , to make a Indoor Positioning System.
