In essense, if I get different signal-strengths at the same place, I want to have some way that tells me that even though they differ a little bit, they are really the same, through either the application of signal-noise-ratio or any other ideas.

The mean Signal is probably the best then.
Signals (and Noise) always fluxuate to a certain extent, due to a number of different influences.

S - N = SNR
Unless your a RF engineer, Ham, or some other "freq geek" it's probably not going to mean too much to you.
Typiclally you want a SNR to be about 10dBm or better to ensure a clear signal.
