RSSI stability on Android Phones

Hi,
I observed that for the same Estimote beacon and distance, RSSI received on HTC, Samsung, other Android phones differs by a great extent.

Any thoughts to get it stable on Android phones ?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Sathiyanarayanan,

RSSI readings on Android devices may vary and fluctuate heavily due to hardware differences between them and lack of noise reduction algorithms on the software side.

To improve beacon responsiveness, you can try adjusting advertising interval. Lower interval means more stable signal, keep in mind though that it may also impact battery life.

Cheers.
