RF Mathematics
• dB is a logarithmic ratio of values (voltages, power, gain, losses)
• We add gains
• We subtract losses
• dBm is a power measurement relative to 1mW
• dBi is the forward gain of an antenna compared to isotropic antenna

• Carrier sense, multiple access / open spectrum • (open, low-power ISM bands) no barrier to entry
• Energy detection must detect channel available – Clear Channel Assessment
• On collision, random back off timer before trying again.
• Clear channel is very important.

Interference and Signal to Noise Ratio
• Any RF signals other than what we want is interference
• SNR is a ratio
• The signal strength is a result of:
• Transmit power
• Receive sensitivity
• Increase the signal,or decrease the noise

802.11AC and the OBSS and Coexistence
• Using the example of an 80 MHz OBSS – (Overlapping BSS)
• AP-AC wins contention on my primary channel and will send data on that channel and 3 other bonded channels.
• The VHT header tells all 802.11AC stations that I’m using an 80 MHz OBSS and even tells what 20 MHz sub channels it’s using
• But What of the lowly 802.11a station, or the 802.11n (HT) station who don’t speak 802.11ac and it’s fancy VHT language?

802.11AC and the OBSS (Overlapping BSS)
• Never Fear – LBT (Listen before Talk) to the rescue – CCA! (Clear Carrier Assessment)
• CCA thresholds where adjusted in the 802.11ac specification to allow Overlapping BSS and IBSS stations coexist by adjusting the contention requirements for Sub Channels
• In the table above – you can see that all 3 protocols have equal contention on the primary.
• Any primary operating within a secondary 20 or 40 will loose contention
• Any secondary 20 operating in a secondary 40 will win contention over other secondary's!
Protocol Primary Secondary 20 MHz Secondary 40 MHz
802.11a -82 dBm
802.11n -82 dBm -62 dBm (20 dB liberty)
802.11ac -82 dBm -72 dBm (10 dB liberty) -76 to -79 (3-6 dB liberty)

Awesome, so what?• More co-channel interference models to
worry about
• So What? It’s still fast – right?
• TCP downlink testing using 80 MHz channel width on channel 36. Interference AP set on channel 44 20 MHz – in the secondary 40 Mhz
If you had set an 802.11ac radio to 80 MHz, that radio will wait until all 80 MHz
is free before it will transmit
It will not roll back and use 40 MHz or 20 MHz

Planning ToolsAll models are wrongSome of them are useful
• A planning tool can be very useful for developing a preliminary design and solving deployment problems
• The model MUST be calibrated to ensure what you see is what you get
• These recommendations should be followed
• Always verify predicted coverage with an actual measurement
• Always remain conservative with power• Middle to lower end of the range should be selected
• Many tools default to high power and can be very misleading.
• Coverage and capacity should be balancedhttps://rftool.cisco.com

Channel Utilisation
• One simple change reduced the utilisation to 5%
• Remove the low rates
• Large cells = Low density
• More users spread across a larger area, connecting at lower data rates
• Small cells = High density
• Removing lower data rates constrains cell size

AP2800/3800 “I” series antenna system (cover removed)
Previously in the controller Access
Point radios were defined as…
Radio 0 = 2.4 GHz
Radio 1 = 5.0 GHz
Using “Flexible Radio Assignment”
Radio “0” can be configured as 2.4 GHz
(default) or as an additional 5 GHz radio.
If configured as a 5 GHz radio the 2.4 GHz
radio is disabled and the 5 GHz micro-cell
antennas are used.
Micro-cell antenna is 7 dBi @ 5 GHz
Macro-cell antenna is 5 dBi @ 5 GHz

• If you have designed a network for dense 5 GHz coverage, then you have too many 2.4 GHz radios
• 2.4 GHz has 1/7th the channels of 5 GHz spectrum in the –A regulatory and it propagates roughly 1.5x farther
• Prior to the 2800/3800 and 8.2 MRs release, your only option was to disable these radios. Disabling the radio provides no value other than making the 2.4 GHz spectrum manageable, but no location, rogue or other information is gathered.
• New in RRM is a redundant radio Identification algorithm to identify and manage locating redundant radios, and assign 1 of multiple roles it can play that and value to the equation.
• In the future - 5 GHz will also be crowded with Bonded channels as well -

Redundant Radio IdentificationPer RF Neighborhood Coverage Analysis
• First and RF Neighborhood (different than an RF Group) is selected to solve
• Using reciprocal NDP messages, each AP is located relevant to one another another in RF Distance
• NDP operates at MAX power
• Coverage area is represented by a circle around each AP
• Then Overlap will be assessed based on multiple points within each AP’s coverage area
• In this way, the coverage of any Given AP can be evaluated for % of redundancy – or percentage of coverage another AP(s) could cover without it
• Current Power is evaluated, and AP’s with a high degree of redundancy are selected for other roles for the XOR radio to fill
