Ekahau Wi-Fi Network Report Template

This document is a Wi-Fi network report that contains summaries of network performance metrics for different floors/locations based on visualization heatmaps. It analyzes coverage, capacity, interference, channel utilization and other factors to identify any network issues and ensure requirements are met. Key metrics included are signal strength, throughput, number of accessible access points, channel interference and signal-to-noise ratio. The report also lists detected devices and their distribution across access points to evaluate network capacity.

Network Health for <#${floor-name}#>

Wi-Fi is typically built for a certain purpose or several purposes, such as VoIP, web browsing,
or location tracking. With Network Health, you can, with a single visualization, display whether
the network meets your requirements or not.

<# “visualization” :
{
“heatmap”:
{
“type”: “nw-health”,
“mode”: “detailed”,
“slot-size”: “2”,

Network Issues for <#${floor-name}#>

Network Issues complements Network Health by showing the requirement that is below the
threshold level at each location. Whereas Network Health answers the question "Does it
work?", Network Issues answers the question "If it doesn't work, why?".

Coverage, Interference and Performance

wireless devices will be transmitting data. Typically the true data throughput is about half of
the data rate or less.

Signal Strength for <#${floor-name}#>

Signal Strength - sometimes called coverage - is the most basic requirement for a wireless
network. As a general guideline, low signal strength means unreliable connections, and low
data throughput.

Wi-Fi Network Report
Signal To Noise Ratio (SNR) for <#${floor-name}#>

Signal-To-Noise Ratio indicates how much the signal strength is stronger than the noise (co-
channel interference). Signal must be stronger than noise (SNR greater than zero) for data
transfer to be possible. If the signal is only barely stronger than noise, you may encounter
occasional connection drop-offs.
