Non-intrusive monitoring of the RF-environment

rf_environment runs the clear channel assessment (CCA) test over all 802.15.4 channels and reports stats per channel. The CCA test is run for different CCA thresholds from -60dBm to -90dBm. CCA is a non-destructive for the rf-environment as it's just listens. Best and worst channel is printed as average rf activity. See example below from Uppsala Kungs-Vaksalagatan. 2017-05-08 and Electrum Stockholm. Originally developed for the Atmel avr-rss2 platform.

Probability for not passing a CCA check in percent per channel. 3-minute samples. Of course this just snapshots to illustrate functionality
