Wi-Fi Site Survey and Analysis of Dead Zones

Abstract

-Wi-Fi Analyser tools and range recognition is a project which involved analyzing the Wi-Fi traffic in Vishwakarma Institute of Technology. We present the details of the analysis and the results of our experiment on the Wi-Fi network using a Wi-Fi analyzer tool called Netspot which is windows software Open Signal and a Coverage app. This paper provides an overall coverage of the Wi-Fi in the college campus . The idea was to present how the signals were measured, analyzed and the conclusion was based on the analysis. Today we already have better tools to access the WiFi devices. This paper presents measurements in real WiFi scenarios and shows how a simple laptop along with some built in applications can be used for such measurement purpose. The applications used for the study is user friendly, free of cost and is easily available both online and offline. The project concentrated on optimizing the number of APs required to access the Wi-Fi signal from every corner of the project site.
