Description
Summary:Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) are one of the most promising access technologies for the upcoming fourth generation wireless communication systems. This paper is about analysis of traffic performance of a typical wireless LAN environment. The performance of the wireless LAN involved several parameters such as the number of Co-Channel, overlapping signal, link score and signal strength. When all parameters were evaluated, several factors need to be taken into account such as the types of wireless LAN that has been used and the type of modem while transferring data. In this study, the wireless LAN area that has been covered is around level 11 at Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Uitm Shah Alam. Most of the wireless LAN security status is open network with security password or security patterns. This paper described the procedure and several important measurements to analyze the traffic performance in the specified regions. This collected data is done using inSSIDer software. The function of the software is to determine WLAN performance based on the signal strength of each network or access point.
