Study of Wi-Fi Signal Strength Measurement and it’s Optimization

Abstract

Very often slow speed of network leads to limited connectivity and delay in processing hours, so we all tend to use wireless technology  either at home or at coffee shop or at airport.We deal with the different ways of wireless networking. Wi-Fi is the most accepted technology and is the wireless way to handle networking. This networking might be interrupted either by server failure or by lost in range.

We found that Wi-Fi networking issues occurs mainly due to the range of particular network. The range of the particular WLAN router is restricted to certain limit. We cannot access Wi-Fi at these dead zones which are present beyond that limit.

The main aimof our paper is to measure signal strength of the particular Wi-Fi network at different places and optimize Wi-Fi network such that it can be accessible at dead zones.

The ultimate result is to identify all the access points before installing WLAN routers and then install   WLAN routers such that Wi-Fi network will cover dead zones and provide ease in accessing particular network.
