The estimation method presented is based on a signal strength indicator, RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator). / Este trabalho aborda a elabora??o de um m?todo para a estimativa de dist?ncia de n?s sensores em Redes de Sensores Sem Fio (RSSF) em ambientes internos fechados, considerando necessidade de adapta??o do m?todo devido ? presen?a de fatores aleat?rios que podem influenciar a estimativa dessas dist?ncias. O m?todo de estimativa apresentado ? baseado em um indicador de intensidade de sinal, o RSSI (Received Sinal Strength Indicator).
