Systems And Methods For Determining And Optimizing Performance of Wireless Networks Having Multiple Access Points

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-readable instructions that, when performed by a processor, perform a method of determining and optimizing wireless network performance of a wireless network having a plurality of access points in a deployment environment, the method comprising:

• causing receipt of indications of initial parameters of each access point of the plurality of access points;
• causing receipt of wireless signal measurements based at least in part on the initial parameters of the plurality of access points,
• wherein the wireless signal measurements are obtained by a plurality of wireless instruments based at least in part on wireless signals to and from a respective plurality of access points;
• performing an analysis of the wireless signal measurements to determine a radio frequency environment performance of the wireless network based at least in part on the respective wireless signal measurements from the plurality of wireless instruments;
• and
• determining at least one parameter for at least one access point to be adjusted based at least in part on the radio frequency environment performance.

A system for determining and optimizing wireless network performance of a network having a plurality of access points in a deployment environment, comprising:

• a master controller;
• a user interface device;
• at least one wireless instrument, communicatively coupled to an access point of the plurality of access points and configured to:
• measure wireless signals to and from the access point to obtain wireless signal measurements;
• and
• communicate the wireless signal measurements to the master controller;
• wherein the master controller is configured to:
• determine initial values for at least one parameter for each access point of the plurality of access points;
• communicate the initial values for the least one parameter for each access point of the plurality of access points to the user interface device for display;
• receive wireless signal measurements from the wireless instrument based at least in part on the parameters for the plurality of access points;
• perform an analysis of the wireless signal measurements to determine a radio frequency environment performance of the wireless network based at least in part on the wireless signal measurements from the wireless instrument;
• communicate the radio frequency environment performance to the user interface device for display;
• adjust at least one parameter for at least one access point based at least in part on the radio frequency environment performance;
• and
• wherein the user interface device is configured to:
• display the initial values for the least one parameter for each access point of the plurality of access points;
• and
• display a visual representation of the radio frequency environment performance.
