Abstract :
In order to implement wireless sensor networks (WSN) in an industrial environment it is necessary to understand the medium´s propagation conditions that affect the reliability and radio performance of such networks. This paper aims to present how to analyze electromagnetic (EM) propagation by means of Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) measured in an industrial hall and how to design/predict the radio performance of wireless communications in such environments.
