Hello,
I have hc-05 as master and hc-06 as slave.
When i try to pair them both, i get RSSI values like this:
FF43
FF03
FFC1
FF34
What does it mean? I need the values in dBM?
I appreciate your helps.
What does it mean?
Looks like signed sixteen bit numbers, to me, printed as unsigned hex.
The numbers really dont mean anything, other than a relative value which will go up or down based on the signal strength.
But RSSI is really a useless value for most things, as there are too many variables which can affect it.
You wont get dbm values from any radios that I know of, unless you have a commercial EMI meter.

I got what you mean but I need RSSI values in dBm, is there anyway to obtain that value? My setup contains HC-05 and HC-06 ? I just need the signal strength in dBm. I am now doing it in AT mode by AT+INQ so i have those values in hexadecimal.

What about converting it into decimal and apply '10log(decimal value)' ? Does this give me dBm ?
dBm is a measure of power , referanced to 1 mw , where 0 dbm = 1 mw.
RSSI is just a voltage generated by the AGC gain control loop in a receiver, and thats all it is .
It has no meaning other than a relative value that indicates whether the signal strength is going up or down, but it doesnt tell you what the signal strength is .
I need some scale or something to tell me signal strength, anyone can help ?
