Creating Wi-Fi Heatmaps using EnGenius ezWIFI Planner
What is a Heat map?
A Wi-Fi heat map is a visual representation of the invisible wireless signals that are used to deliver Wi-Fi. The Wi-Fi heat map is produced using specialized software to visualize RF coverage within a given space. In simple terms, the Wi-Fi heat map will show the signal strength and quality throughout a space to verify that the Wi-Fi design is effective and optimal to support the use of wireless devices and applications.
Steps to follow generating a Heatmap:
Understanding the requirement
Getting layout
Analyzing the Interior and exterior
Analyze the building.
1.Single floor
2.Multi-floor
3.Campus (indoor and outdoor)
4.Warehouse
5.Obtain digital floor plans.
