Propagasi Indoor Gelombang Radio Perangkat XBee di Rumah Sakit Ibu dan Anak Budhi Mulia Pekanbaru
Abstract
The aim of this study is to know the propagacy reading of radio frequency in a building oriented to objects by using Xbee peripheral. There are some factors influenced the accuracy of this peripheral while measuring the RSSI signal. To do this propogacy reading of radio frequency used Zigbee IEEE 802.15.4 wireless network. This network has the cheaper cost in technology. This propogacy is applied with a tool designed and functioned as Tx (sender) and the Rx (receiver) whereas each of the Tx and Rx has its own component parts.The results of the reading of this RSSI signal is if there are so many barriers that blocks, the signal strength is very small. And if there is a little barrier that blocks, the signal strength is very big. The reading of data XBee-shaped in dbm can be seen through a software called ZiggBee Operator.
