CCS/LAUNCHXL-CC1350: how can i add some calculation method for find distance based on RSSI

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Dear Ti,

now i am working with CC1350 for find ibeacon distance based on node RSSI value, so i choose Rfwsnconcentrator and node example for my need,

here i have a some issue, i add this line to Concentrator task.c for calculate distance based on node RSSI

uint8_t distance= 10 ^ ((-32 – (latestRssi))/(10 * 2));

but this get some error, i am a newbie to Ti so i can't solve this error, can you help to solve this error,

subdir_rules.mk:30: recipe for target 'ConcentratorTask.obj' failed
"../ConcentratorTask.c", line 244: error #7: unrecognized token
"../ConcentratorTask.c", line 244: error #18: expected a ")"
"../ConcentratorTask.c", line 244: warning #179-D: variable "distance" was declared but never referenced
2 errors detected in the compilation of "../ConcentratorTask.c".

thank you

    It might just be some copy-n-paste error, but the dash between 32 and ( is not the usual ASCII character for dash, but something else.  Try changing that character to the same dash that is just before 32.  

    Thanks and regards,

    Dear george,

    sorry for the delay, i am busy in another project so i can't check that and onething -32 is my RSSI value for 1 feet distance so can't change the value if i change the negative to positive value my output is comes wrong. 

    with regards

    My point is simpler than that.  I'll say the same thing differently.  This source line ...

    Natesh kannan S61 said:
    uint8_t distance= 10 ^ ((-32 – (latestRssi))/(10 * 2));

    ... contains a non-ASCII character.  To be precise, it is the dash between the constant 32 and the next ( .  Change that to the normal ASCII character for dash.  

    Thanks and regards,

    -George

    You missed another problem, George. ^ is not the exponentiation operator in C. I doubt that he wants to do a bit-wise exclusive OR. 8^)
    uint8_t distance= pow(10 , ((-32 – (latestRssi))/(10 * 2)));

    But I have little hope that this will work as a practical distance measurement method.
