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.
