Adaptive Tx Power Control Use Cases

Use Model: Warehouse Deployment

Settings

Avoid Other WLANs – On the Airport APs, ‘Avoid Other WLANs’ is disabled,

so that their power reduction calculations will not be affected by any potential

rogue APs.

RF Group Name – RF Group is configured on all APs as ‘storage 1’. All

Warehouse APs will reduce power for any other audible AP 530 in the

warehouse, regardless of the SSID configuration.

Adaptive Mode – Adaptive Mode is set to ‘AP’, so that transmit power control

of both beacons and data traffic will be attenuated, based on power levels of

audible APs in the RF Group (but not the power levels of associated clients).

Decisions: AP #1 and AP #4

AP #1 and AP #4 compare their RF Group Name [storage 1]. Since AP #1 and

AP #4 are in the same RF Group, each will consider reducing power for the

other.

Results with Adaptive Mode AP

■ The transmit power levels of AP1 and AP4 are reduced for both data and

beacons.

■ Power levels are optimized for maximum coverage and minimum inter-

ference between other APs in the RF Group on the same channel.

■ Power levels will be adjusted if obstructions are moved in or out of the

RF path between APs on the same channel, or if APs are moved or

removed.

■ Power levels are not adjusted for the signal strength of associated clients.
