Abstract
The invention is a method of measuring the RF losses among home wiring endpoints using battery-powered 'remotes' placed at each accessible endpoint in the home. The remotes use a low power, ad hoc networking technology, e.g. Zigbee, Z-wave, to connect to one another over the home wiring, rather than over the air via antennas as in typical applications of these technologies.
