Hello. I'm using 2 Xbee pro modules.
One for remote controller, another one for mobile platform.
The mobile platform transmits many packets for state monitoring.
But only fragments of a packet, quite often,are received at remote controller side.
I tried lowering baudrate to 9600, but still there's packet loss...
Can you suggest methods for reducing packet loss when using wireless communication like XBee?

Use CTS flow control to avoid overflowing the xbee Tx buffer.
When the Tx buffer overflows the Xbee gets confused and starts sending garbage data. Sometimes it recovers automatically, sometimes is doesn't and you have to cycle the power.
Find a less congested channel by using the XCTU program to do an energy scan.
