MEASURING WLAN THROUGHPUT
The throughput measurement shows the performance of the TCP/IP layer over the wireless link. To achieve the best
results,
run the measurement test in a clean environment with as little interference as possible . The test can be run with the
adapter
connected to either an Infrastructure network (see Fig. 2.2) or an ad hoc network (see Fig. 2.3). An AP that is known to
be
in good working order should be used for the infrastructure mode test.
