4. WIRELESS PREDICTIVE PLANNING
This section contains the digraphs, plans and heat maps of the wireless infrastructure design.
The planning is the first stage in a wifi network installation, where in a theoretical way, the locations of
the access points as well as the conditions and constructive elements of the area where the wireless
infrastructure is going to be deployed are approached.
4.1. LOCATION PLANNING: OSCD ASWF
For each location, we have a plan of where to locate the access points.
4.1.1. PLANNING DETAILS
This is the blueprint on which planning has been carried out.

The constructive elements drawn are detailed as well as the location of the access points for its later
analysis and validation using the planning algorithms.
Una buena infraestructura WiFi necesita una buena intensidad de señal, por lo que es importante
distribuir los APs de forma que las áreas de interés dispongan de buena cobertura y sean capaces de
cubrir todo el area sin que muros o paredes degraden la emisión.

4.1.2. PLANNING FREQUENCY BAND: 2.4 GHZ
The results of the planning simulations for the specified frequency band are shown below.
4.1.2.1. APS RSSI COVERAGE
This heat map shows the RSSI (Received Signal Strength) that will exist in a zone.
It is considered an acceptable RSSI -65dBm, and a good one starting at -55dBm.

4.1.2.2. NUMBER OF APS
This shows the number of available APs in each zone, De modo que se obtiene la redundancia disponible
para cada lugar.

4.1.2.3. AP COVERAGE
This option shows the area of influence for each AP. That is, the AP that is received with the best signal
in each zone.
This visualization makes it possible to visualize the area covered by each AP, allowing the identification
of those that, due to their small radius of action, are being underused.

4.1.2.4. CHANNEL COVERAGE
This option shows which channel is used within each zone. This visualization helps the planning of APs to
avoid interference.
The contact between zones with nearby channels will cause interferences and degradation of network
performance.

4.1.2.5. SIGNAL-TO-INTERFERENCE RATIO
This option shows areas that will suffer performance degradation due to interferences with other APs.

4.1.3. PLANNING FREQUENCY BAND: 5 GHZ
The results of the planning simulations for the specified frequency band are shown below.
4.1.3.1. APS RSSI COVERAGE
This heat map shows the RSSI (Received Signal Strength) that will exist in a zone.

5.2. RADIO FREQUENCY SPECTRUM
This section represents the information collected from radio electrical medium for the 2.4 and 5Ghz
frequency bands. Wireless transmissions operate on one of these bands, according to the 802.11
communication standard being implemented. For each band, an access point operates in a frequency
subset. Depending on the access point configuration, and the 802.11 standard revision, networks can
operate in frequency bandwidths of 20, 40, 80, or even 160 Mhz.
Therefore, an access point that is set to operate on channel 6 of the 2.4Ghz frequency band, with a
20Mhz bandwidth, will use the frequencies of the channels 4,5,6,7, and 8 (two channels to the left and
another two channels to the right from the central channel 6).
Wi-Fi communications quality is decreased in an environment of coexisting radio transmission on the

same frequencies. These emissions may come from neighboring wireless networks or from any other
source. This section displays all emissions in the operating frequency bands, whether coming from Wi-Fi
devices or not.
The areas where radio emissions are detected but no access point is in operation, suggest the presence
of devices emitting in the same range of frequencies that are negatively impacting the communications
quality.

5.2.1. 2.4GHZ
The following graph displays the 2.4GHz band radio emissions used in Wi-Fi communications. This
frequency range is widely used by multiple wireless technologies.
Many devices such as Bluetooth headsets, microwave ovens, surveillance cameras, baby monitors,
wireless phones, drone remote controls, among others, operate on the 2.4GHz band.
The graph can't be generated due to the absence of spectrum data in the current location.

5.2.2. 5GHZ
The following graph displays the 5GHz band radio emissions used in Wi-Fi communications. This
frequency range is widely used by multiple wireless technologies. However, the 2.4Ghz frequency range
is more often used than the 5Ghz band.
The graph can't be generated due to the absence of spectrum data in the current location.

5.3.2.1.3. CHANNEL OVERLAP
The Channel Overlapping control shows those areas where adjacent interference requirements are met.
An AP is considered to have adjacent interference when some of its transmitted frequencies overlap
with another AP transmitting on a different channel over the same band.
Channel Overlap for the network Umanizales
AP Overlap less than or equal 0 APs

Pass
Gap RSSI greater than or equal 20 dBm

5.3.2.1.4. CO-CHANNEL INTERFERENCE
This control displays those areas where co-channel interference parameters are met.
An AP is considered to have co-channel interference when there is another AP transmitting on the same
channel within its wireless range.
When co-channel overlap exists, multiple access points must share the frequency. Since only one access
point can transmit on a given frequency at a time, when an access point has data to transmit, it must
first analyze the spectrum to determine if there is another device currently using the chosen channel. If
it finds another device currently using the channel, it must wait for it to finish before it can use it. This
significantly reduces the available bandwidth to each access point since the available bandwidth must
be divided among all the access points using that channel.

5.3.2.1.5. LATENCY
Latency is the time interval between sending a data packet and receiving a response (round trip time). In
this case, latency is the amount of time a packet takes to be transmitted and received back in the
wireless space.
Acceptable latency values range from 1-10ms.
The graph can't be generated due to the absence of active survey data in the current location. Please
ensure that active survey configuration is correctly set and active during the scan.

5.3.2.1.6. BANDWIDTH
The Bandwidth control indicates whether minimum bandwidth requirements for the active survey are
met throughout the coverage area.

5.3.2.1.7. PACKET LOSS
The packet loss rate is the percentage of packets that do not reach their destination which are (usually)
retransmitted. Packet loss has a negative impact on network performance. When a packet does not
reach its destination, packet retransmission is usually requested by the recipient, adding additional time
to complete the transmission.
Packet loss rates under 10% are acceptable and will have a negligible impact on network performance in
most cases.

5.3.2.1.8. ACCESS POINT ROAMING
When an existing wireless network coverage area exceeds the range of a single access point, additional
access points must be deployed. The process of switching from an access point with decreasing signal
strength to one with a better signal while staying on the same network is called Roaming. Roaming
allows a client to stay connected to the network and maintain communication when moving beyond the
range of the currently connected access point into the range of another broadcasting the same network.

5.3.2.2.2. SIMULTANEOUS RSSI COVERAGE
The Simultaneous AP Coverage control displays those areas where signal strength received by any of the
network access points is equal or lower than the predetermined threshold value.
To ensure dependable wireless communications, it is necessary, under certain circumstances, that all
the points in the coverage area can access a certain number of access points within the network
infrastructure, preventing channel overlapping, with at least a minimum signal strength.

5.3.3.7. SNR HEATMAP
The following image shows the Umanizales network's signal-to-noise ratio throughout the surveyed
area.
Signal-to-noise ratio measures the ratio between the Wi-Fi network signal strength and the background
noise. Higher noise levels will result in a larger negative impact on communications. This parameter
offers valuable information on the effectiveness of communications.
These values range from 0 to 100, being 100 the best possible communication quality.
The graph can't be generated due to the absence of the required data.

5.3.3.8. DATA RATE HEATMAP
The following image shows the area covered by the APs based on their data transfer rates for the
Umanizales network throughout the surveyed area.
Data rate helps determine the maximum data transmission speed among the wireless devices connected
to a Wi-Fi network.
This value allows you to establish how consistent a network is when transmitting data across the
coverage area, and helps you find those areas where these values greatly differ or the network
performance significantly decreases.

5.3.3.9. CELL DENSITY HEATMAP
The following image shows a heatmap revealing the distribution of all client devices connected to the
APs propagating the Umanizales network.
Cell density allows you to spot which zones have the higher number of client devices connected to the
network by showing its saturation.
It provides useful information to allow for an even AP distribution according to actual usage.

5.3.3.10. RETRIES RATE HEATMAP
In an ideal Wi-Fi communication, all sent data packets reach their destination. Otherwise, poor
transmission, interferences or any other communication problems can cause the dropped packets to be
retransmitted for a correct data transmission. The larger the number of retransmitted or forwarded
packets, the larger the communication latency will be, resulting in a lower communication quality.
The following image shows the areas where packet loss is experienced within Umanizales network,
based on packet retry rate.

5.3.3.11. BANDWIDTH
Bandwidth indicates the amount of data being transmitted through Umanizales network for each area
within the network site range.
Bandwidth is measured in kilobytes per seconds, KB/s (1MB/s=1000KB/s), where a higher value
translates as a better network performance.

5.3.3.12. LATENCY
Latency indicates the time delay experienced in the data transfer through Umanizales network for each
area within the network site range.
When a data packet is sent, it is received by a receiving device that notifies the transmitting device that
the packet has been successfully received. Latency is the period from the time a data packet is sent to
the time the packet reception confirmation is received. Latency is measured in milliseconds (ms).
The higher the latency, the lowest the network performance will be. High latency values negatively
impact real-time application performance, such as video-conferencing and VoIP communications.

5.3.3.13. PACKET LOSS
In an ideal data communication, all sent data packets reach their destination; otherwise there is a
packet loss that negatively impacts the data transmission performance, hence the overall network
performance.
When a data packet is lost, if required by the protocol, it should be re-transmitted until a successful
reception notification is received. This increases the amount of time necessary for a data unit to be
transmitted, reducing the amount of data that can be transmitted per unit of time. The higher this value
is, the lower the network performance will be.
The following image shows the areas where data packet loss is experienced within Umanizales network
site range.

5.3.3.14. ROAMING
Data roaming in a Wi-Fi network infrastructure is the ability of a client device to move around within a
multiple access point network's coverage area without disconnections.
To ensure roaming in a multiple access point Wi-Fi network, access points' coverage ranges should
overlap.
Accordingly, a moving client device will have continuous network coverage, and based on the device's
internal settings and access point configuration, network access will be granted through the different
access points across the coverage area.
The following image shows all Umanizales network access points to which the device has been
connected to while itinerating.
