How to improve distance estimation using RSSI. The distance estimated from beacon.getDistance() method '' is varying with different phone orientation.Also, I am facing a huge jumping nature for the estimated position while moving . Any help will be grateful.

This is what you should expect. Distance estimation using RSSI values is not very accurate by nature. Certainly things could still be improved though, check out #127 for instance.
