area covered by antenna

Thu Jun 28, 2018 3:05 pm

Hi everyone.
I kind of need your assistance as well as benefit from your knowledge and experience.
I do have a RB921GS-5HPacD r2 serving as an AP and mounted on a tower with clients connected to it.
From its manual, it is being specified to have a coverage of 120 by 120 (degrees).
I really desire to view graphically the coverage and propagation of the AP.
Is there anyone who knows a software that if connected to the AP will display the geographical coverage.
Your contributions are highly appreciated.

Thank you.

You can see antenna gain graphs on the product page.

The real coverage depends on the results you want to reach, environment and clients used for that.

There are many applications on Google play store for android devices that draw heatmaps. One of them is named "coverage".

Is that so much difficult to spend ten seconds by googling?
