Creating an RF Calibration ModelCreating an RF Calibration Model
When you are using Cisco Wireless Control System with Location Services and want to improve client
and rogue AP location accuracy across one or more floors, you can create an RF Calibration Model that
uses manually collected RF measurements to calibrate the location algorithm.
When you have multiple floors in a building with the same physical layout as the calibrated floor, you
can save time calibrating the remaining floors by applying the same RF Calibration Model to the
remaining floors.
Follow the RF Calibration procedures included in the Cisco WCS Web Interface Online Help
to create an
RF Prediction Model.
Adding a Campus Map to the Cisco WCS DatabaseAdding a Campus Map to the Cisco WCS Database
Rather than forcing the Network operator to use only a text-based map to manage the Cisco Structured
Wireless-Aware Network (Cisco SWAN), Cisco WCS allows the operator to view the managed System on
realistic campus, building, and floor plan maps. This section describes how to add a single campus map
to the Cisco WCS database.
• First, save your maps in .PNG, .JPG, .JPEG, or .GIF format. They can be any size, as Cisco WCS
automatically resizes the map to fit in its working areas.
• Browse to and import the map(s) from anywhere in your file system.
• Select the Monitor Tab.
• Click Maps to have Cisco WCS display the Maps page.
• In the Button Area, select New Campus.
