What is RSSI , SNR and technical specification value in dbm

Hi,
I am little bit confused about RSSI concept and SNR , Signal strength.
One more thing that , what is technical specification of signal strength and SNR and RSSI for 802.11 a,b,g and n
Because as far as application concern , this values get changed eq. voice , video
I need to get the values according to application.

Hi,
RSSI means Receiver Signal Strength Indicator. It's the strength of the signal as perceived as received by the client. It does not have a precise unit of measurement. On client softwares, it's usually a percentage (that has no real meaning). WLC and APs usually show in dbm.
SNR is Signal/Noise ratio. The noise level is usually at -90dbm let's say. This means that if you have a signal at -90dbm, it's completely lost in the noise, it has a SNR of 0.
A signal at -80dbm has a SNR of 10 in the same conditions, it is barely decodable.
However if the noise level is -95 then a signal of -80 will give a SNR of 15 and will be much more decodable.
Noise is usually between -100 and -90 in normal circumstances.
Dbm is another way of expressing power (rather than milliwatts). The advantage of dbm is that you can add or substract antenna gains very easily since those are in db.
20dbm=100mw
The rule is "if you substract 3dbm, divide the mw by 2" and "if you substract 10dbm, divide the milliwats by 10"
So 17dbm = 50mw
13dbm=25mw
10dbm=10mw
The received signal strength which are usually between -40 and -80dbm are then fractions of fractions of microwatts :-)

    Hi,
    Can anybody share BI Functional and Technical Specification for SAP R/3 data extraction for modules FI/CO, SD, MM, WM/MM.
    Thanks.

    Hi Hitesh
    Bi Functional Specification is like this where you get the details of what is the report they are looking for and what does that do in detail explanation from the key user of that particular area.
    and also you will receive an document saying that the particular tables and fields ...
    After receiving that then you will be starting an work by preparing an Design document of what are the objects you are going to use in the system and what type of Data Source your are  using and Targets etc.. This is nothing but an Technical Specification... and this also contains what type of the load is it...
    Hope this helps you..

  • What is mean?AND bar = cfqueryparam value="#attributes.bar#" /

    what is mean?
    AND bar = <cfqueryparam value="#attributes.bar#" />
    </cfquery>
    <cfset attributes.isFooBar = (foo.recordCount neq 0) />
    of
    <cfquery name="foo" datasource="#request.DSN#">
    SELECT
    id
    FROM
    foobar
    WHERE 1 = 1
    AND bar = <cfqueryparam value="#attributes.bar#" />
    </cfquery>
    <cfset attributes.isFooBar = (foo.recordCount neq 0)
    />

    Basically you have a query "foo". It is pulling "id" from the
    table "foobar" where an attribute was passed into the template.
    "attributes.bar"
    Then you are doing a true/false on the recordcount. If it is
    0 you get 0 otherwise you get 1.

  • Functional and Technical Specification

    Hi Experts
    As a Functional Consultant we prepare Functional Specefication. As I came to know that on the basis of this Technical Specification are prepared.
    My querry is what are these two and whats the difference between these. Are we require to check Techniocal Specification before making any change in already prepared Functional specs.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    See the basic difference is Functional Specs are prepared by functional consultant, whereas Techincal specs are prepared by ABAPers.
    Functional specs comprises of the logic, which has table & field from which the data has to be fetched. Since ABAPer can write abap code, the document is to guide them in writing the code.
    Technical specs is completely prepared by ABAPers only.
    No, its not needed to check Technical Specification before making any change in already prepared Functional specs.
    Hope this solves your query.

  • Inserting a record when we have a mixture of Session and web page values...

    Hi
    I just want to ask whether my solution is correct or not.
    I should insert some rows into database table, each row has a userID field which i have in a Session Scope bean for each user.
    now when i want to insert a row into those specific tables that has userID field i do the following:
    -create a form with all required field (using adf faces components), all elements has binding in backing beans, so i can access its values in backing bean
    -put a save button in the form.
    -create action for that button
    -in the action i use ViewObject for that specific component to insert the new row from Form values and that specific value from session scope bean.
    but i feel that it is not the correct way, I think ADF BC + Faces components should have a better solution for this.
    in case that you have better solution for this, please let me know.
    thanks

    Hi
    Thank you for reading my post.
    At the first step when i read you comment i create that method and drop it into the page as a command button and i get the result that i described.
    at the second step made some editing to aaPabeDef.xml .
    -First i tried and create a new invokeAction under the executables node. I gave it an ID (Exec2) and set the refresh condition to what you said.
    Also i select createRowWithUserID as Binds for this InvokeAction.
    Now i tried to create an Action under the bindings node, but when i select Action from pop-up menu and i select the required Data Collection, i can not see exec2 in actions combo box.
    Now i drop the method into my page from Data Control plate and run the application
    result is not what i want, this time it shows too many messaes in my browser about
    required fields (fields that i used on the page and are manedatory)
    After i press the button and page refreshs all values are gone from the input boxes.
    here are images :

  • SNR and RSSI Values.

    HI ,
    What is the  tha average ,minimum and maximum  values of  SNR(Signal to noice ratio ) and RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator ) in  cisco  access points   .
    And how it is depends on the client connectivity with the Access point.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sinjish.K      

    I am not really sure what you asking here, but My guess is your trying to get a grasp on what SNR and RSSI
    values are how they relate to clients, and how they relate to connectivity. If this is the case read on. otherwise well ingore this post..
    SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) is a ratio based value that evaluates your signal based on the noise being seen. So let's look at the components of the SNR and they see how to determine it.  SNR is comprised of 2 values and is measured as a positive value between 0db and 120db and the closer it is to 120db the better: Signal Value and Noise Value typically these are expressed in decibels (db).
         So we will look at the Signal (Also known as RSSI) first this value is measured in decibels from 0 (zero) to -120 (minus 120) now when looking at this value the closer to 0 (zero) the stronger the signal is which means it's better, typically voice networks require a -65db or better signal level while a data network needs -80db or better.  Normal range in a network would be -45db to -87db depending on power levels and design; since the Signal is affected by the APs transmit power & antenna aswell as the clients antenna (I'll explain this later.)
         Now to the Noise side of this equation, noise is any signal (interference) that is not WiFi traffic such as cordless phones, microwaves, radar, etc. This value is measured in decibels from 0 (zero) to -120 (minus 120) now when looking at this value the closer to -120 (minus 120) is better because that means there is little to no interference. Typical environments range between -90db and -98db.
         So to calculate your SNR value you add the Signal Value to the Noise Value and it generates (or should) a positive number that is expressed in decibels (db); for example lets say your Signal value is -55db and your Noise value is -95db.
                        -55db + -95db = 40db this means you have an SNR of 40, my general rule of thumb is that any SNR above 20 is good.
    RSSI (Recieved Signal Strength Indicator) is a more common name for the Signal value; meaning it is the strength that the device is hearing a specific device or signal.RSSI is most common used in bridge links where on client laptops they just call it Signal.
    As for your question about the maximum and minimum supported by cisco access points that is hard to answer because the antennas attached to the access points also factor into it. In general the Cisco APs have the following maximum transmit powers: 802.11a/n is 40mw or 14dbm, 802.11b is 100mw or 20dbm, 802.11g is 50mw or 17dbm; although in some cases countries and specific channels can alter these limits.
    The last three things I will kind of explain is the EIRP, Free Space Path Loss, and Client side.
    EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power) is the actual amount of signal leaving the antenna and is a value measured in db that is based on 3 things:Transmit Power (db), Cable Loss (db), & Antenna Gain (dbi). To determine EIRP follow this equation: - Cable Loss + Antenna Gain = EIRP. For example we have a Cisco 1242AG access points running at full power with a 6dbi antenna on the 802.11a radio and a 2.5dbi antenna on the 802.11bg radio.
    802.11a EIRP = 17db (40mw) - 0db + 6dbi = 23db = 200mw of actual output power
    802.11bg EIRP = 20db (100mw) - 0db + 2.5dbi = 22.5db = 150mw (approx) of actual output power
    based on the example above in theory if you were to measure it right at the antenna you could get an RSSI of -23 or -22.5 respectively.
    Free Space Path Loss is a measure of how much signal power you lose over a given distance typically you lose about 0.020 db per foot in an outdoor or wide open office; doors, walls, glass, and etc. affect this. This is why as you walk away from an AP your signal gets weaker.
    All this relates to the client because it determines the signal the client recieves, also keep in mind that when looking at the client you have to account for it's antenna as well.  much like the EIRP...  So if a client card has a 2 dbi antenna (although they are typically either 0dbi or 2.2dbi) that boosts the incoming signal. as shown here assuming the actual raw RSSI signal being seen is -68db (not the value displayed in the client window).
    Actual RSSI + Antenna Gain = Displayed RSSI
    -68db + 2db = -66db
    I hope all this helps with your question...
    Please rate useful posts.
