Signal Quality
A radio frequency (RF) signal can be assessed by two components:
signal strength (quantity)
signal quality
The quality of the signal is determined by a combination of factors. Primarily it is composed of
signal strength and the ratio of the RF noise present. RF noise occurs both naturally and
artificially by electrical equipment. If the amount of the RF noise is high, or the signal strength
is low, it results in a lower signal to noise ratio, which causes poorer signal quality. With a low
signal to noise ratio, it is difficult for the radio receiver to discern the data information
contained in the signal from the noise itself.
Signal
Strength
The signal strength icon bars indicate the quality of the transmit and receive signals between
your WiFi adapter and the access point or computer in Device to Device (ad hoc) mode. The
number of vertical green bars indicates the strength of the transmit and receive signals.
NOTE
: The signal strength is displayed for the closest AP for networks that contains multiple
APs.
