AirMagnet Spectrum AnalyzerWe recently performed a pre-installation RF study of the entire San Francisco area (50 square miles) by driving around the streets and collecting RF data. This was a bit challenging due to the many hills and heavy traffic, but the sights were amazing! Part of our job was to record a hundred spectrum scans throughout the City. In order to do this, we used AirMagnet Survey software integrated with a GPS and AirMagnet’s Analyzer Adapter, which fits in the PCMCIA slot on a laptop. The software automatically records a spectrum scan in both the 2.4-2.5GHz and 5.0-6.0GHz frequency bands every few seconds while we drove. This was much easier than using a portable spectrum analyzer to record the scans manually.
