So, I had a suspicion about some TDMA stuff that I was talking to other
people in Vegas about... I just got an email from someone to confirm my
hypothesis.
So if you define the time it takes to poll all clients in a TDMA system
as "1 round", and you know that the longer the round is, the more total
throughput but higher latency you have, you can already make some decent
decisions off of that.
Another metric that would be nice to have, is actually how long each
client is being polled- either in actual time measurement, or as a
percentage of total "round" time.

Hey Mike -
So you want something with total airtime, actual capacity in both
directions and airtime distribution per CPE ?
Thanks,
Ben

I want to see utilization or duty cycle meters. Tell me how busy
the AP is so I know how much more can fit... and break down into
different categories why it's busy. TX, Rx, retransmit, overhead,
MCS 15, MCS 0, which stations are using what percent, etc.
I'd say that knowing how busy the radio is is more important than
knowing how many bits are flowing through it.
