     16=== What is ORBIT Lab? ===
    1717The ORBIT facility consists of a 20 x 20  grid of programmable radio nodes used to test wireless protocols and applications. Certain nodes in the facility, as well as certain sandboxes (part of the lab but not the grid), contain Universal Software Radio Peripherals (USRP), which are software defined radios that transmit and receive signals.

    3232Founded in 2003 and launched in 2005, this lab provides the world's largest academic testbed for wireless communications. As of 2014, there are over 1000 registered users who have logged ~200,000 experimentation hours since the lab's founding.

     58=== Procedure ===
    5959Using the USRPs as both transmitters and receivers, we measure the received signal power of a certain transmitted signal and plot this measurement against the distance between the node and transmitter. We hope to obtain many distance-power measurements, which would allow us to accurately predict the the distance (but not direction) between a transmitter and receiver based on the signal power.
