All software that simulates a wireless enviornment is just that, simulation. You can construct an enviormnent anb basically 'see' where your RF cells are. But...... there is nothing better that acutually putting up the AP's with the anteanna's that you are going to use, along with channels, power, etc....

After you have done that, you can install the AP's and them make a final assessment.

Thank you for your responses. I know GPS can be used with Ekahau and
AirMagnet. If my understanding is correct these softwares need the APs to be
deployed and we need to go with the software and GPS to capture the live
data for analysis.
Ekahau comes up with a module called Ekahau planner by which before
deploying APs, you can draw the walls, doors, elevators etc...and deploy APs
at different places to see the signal strength, SNR, Interference etc... I'm
sure it's not gonna be exact. But at least it will give an idea where to
deploy AP's. I'm looking for some kind of planner that can be used outdoor
before I go for AP deployment.

Thank you,

Whats wrong with using Ekahau. You can use a GPS mouse.....

Airmagnet Suveyor would also be a good choice.

*Subject:* [SOCALWUG] Site Survey Outdoor

Hello,

I have been using Ekahau for our indoor site survey and it's a pretty decent tool. I'm wondering is there any software in the market for doing community wireless site survey where I can have buildings, trees (with app. Height) and other things that might present in a community. I know Verizon has one but it's their proprietary software.

Would appreciate any inputs on this.

Thank you,

Regards,

Janakan Rajendran
