Chapter 8. Solving Noise and Interference Problems
One challenge that you will eventually face when operating your outdoor license-free network is how to minimize the throughput-reducing effects of interference and noise. Although noise has many potential causes, there are also many techniques that you can use to minimize the impact of noise on your network. This chapter summarizes the following topics:
The importance of understanding signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
How to maximize the desired signal strength
How to minimize the noise from your own network
How to minimize the noise from other networks
How to minimize the noise from out-of-band transmitters
How to monitor network performance and detect emerging noise problems
How to use direction-finding ...
