Handoff logic and rate adaptation settings
CAUTION
The following settings are intended for use by qualified network
engineers. Do not change these settings unless there is a
specific need to do so.
For detailed information on how to set Handoff logic and Rate
adaptation, refer to the
Fluidmesh Networks Fluidity
Configuration Manual
.
The Handoff Logic setting controls the unit's choice of infrastructure point
with which to connect. Select the correct handoff logic setting for the unit
by clicking the
Handoff Logic:
drop-down and clicking the correct option
from the list below:
•
Standard:
The unit connects to the transceiver providing the
strongest signal.
•
Load Balancing:
The unit connects to the transceiver that provides
the most suitable balance between signal strength and the amount
of traffic presently being carried.
•
Allow V2V:
in cases where a vehicle-mounted unit is not able to
communicate directly with an infrastructure point, this setting allows
data traffic to be routed from the source vehicle through a second
vehicle to an infrastructure point.
IMPORTANT
If the Allow V2V setting is chosen, note the following
points:
•
Ad hoc
communication (in other words,
communication between vehicle radio units that
bypasses infrastructure radio units) is not
supported.
• A maximum of two hops are allowed (for
example, vehicle-to-vehicle-to-infrastructure).
The Rate Adaptation setting controls the unit's choice of modulation
coding and speed of packet transmission. Select the correct rate
adaptation setting for the unit by clicking the
Rate Adaptation:
drop-down
and clicking the correct option from the list below:
•
Standard:
This option applies a standard reactive rate selection as
used by WiFi access points.
•
Advanced:
This option applies Fluidmesh's proprietary predictive
rate selection algorithm.
Save the Fluidity settings by clicking the
Save
button. Alternatively, clear
the settings by clicking the
Reset
button.
