Here at Allinit srl mostly we experienced in hardware and firmware for Wi-Fi tag which use RSSI to guess a position. The use of a Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) is a conventional technique, it is also currently the most used in i-Beacon or other beaconing solution. It has the advantage of being easy to implement because almost all hardware radio receivers have a way to measure it, but it has the big disadvantage that its measures are affected by many environmental factors so that the result cannot be as desired. Based on the fact that the Radio signal strength decrease from the source until reaching the receiver, according to a well known logarithmic function, known the source power and measuring the received signal strength, it is possible to calculate the distance from source
