Figure 40 - Link Settings - SLAVE node default configuration
The radio parameters are defined in profiles. Each profile consists of a fixed set of
radio interface parameters. The heuristic search algorithm can quickly evaluate the
general air media parameters and choose the profile which defines the most suitable
network.
Example given:
It is suitable to configure radio profiles on the slave units (with complete radio
parameters of each BS) in a PtMP deployment when the CPEs can be linked to more
than one BS either in fixed, nomadic or mobile situations, for the redundancy
purpose (different profile for each BS)
When the CPE tries to establish a wireless connection, it chooses the BS with better
radio parameters (e.g. better SNR, less retries, etc.). If the connected BS is down,
the CPE retries to connect to it and after a number of unsuccessful attempts, it
searches to connect to a new BS if the SNR allows it and if one of its radio profiles
matches with another BS radio parameters (in case of Multi BS option disabled)
