OPTIMIZING A NETWORK PLAN
Optimizing your network is a post-deployment technique. You can
optimize your WLAN by importing RF measurement data to correct RF
attenuation obstacle information in your network plan. You optimize
your network plan because:
You have a reported coverage problem in your network
You want to verify your network RF coverage
The RF measurement data you use to optimize your network plan can
originate from:
MAPs in your network. You can leverage the RF measurements
derived from your MAPs. If you choose to use RF measurement data
from the MAPs in your network, the data is determined against a
smaller set of RF measurements.
An Ekahau Site Survey™ tool. You perform a site survey of your
network. The benefit of using RF measurements derived from a site
survey is that the results more closely match the coverage
environment that your wireless users experience in your network.
Thousands of measurements can be recorded, creating a set of RF
measurements that are more precise than those gained from your
deployed MAPs.
Both MAPs and a site survey.
By importing data and applying it to your network plan, you correct the
RF model to reflect what the measurements report. You update the RF
attenuation for obstacles based on real-world measurements. You can
then replan your network to:
Make changes in the software to improve signal strength and
coverage for groups or individuals
Modify MAP locations
Add additional equipment to your network
