Clarification on RF report Section

  • 1.  Clarification on RF report Section

    Posted Jun 06, 2012 03:59 PM

    Recently, I started really analyzing our daily RF health reports, and started to notice a section that appears every now and then labeled "Problem XX GHz Radios".

     

    I'm pretty curious on what classifies a radio as a "Problem Radio" with in this report. I can't seem to find any thing in the AirWave documentation regarding it, and was wondering if anyone else knew.

     

    Thx.

    For the RF Health report, problem radios are radios that violate 2 or more thresholds.

     

    The following theshold values are hardcoded for the RF Health Report:

    average noise greater or equal to -80

    average channel utilization greater or equal to 75

    MAC / Phy errors greater or equal to 1000

    Interfering device count greater or equal to 1

     

    Most often, you'll see that the MAC/Phy errors and Interfering device counts are the triggering thresholds since they are the easiest to set off in most environments.
