Abstract

Wi-Fi performance plays a bigger role in a wireless network. Numerous parameters affect the operation of Wi-Fi in a network, including throughput, delay, latency, and packet loss. Wi-Fi performance metrics provide significant benefits to the user in terms of Wi-Fi performance. Because fire stations have a low-quality of Wi-Fi network. Thus, this project aims to investigate the Wi-Fi performance in an indoor environment for LOS and NLOS condition. This project also aims to analyse the Wi-Fi performance in terms of throughput, packet loss for LOS and NLOS indoor environment. The parameters being measured in this project include packet loss, a packet sent, a packet received, throughput, and latency. These parameters are being measured using EMCO Ping Monitor 8 and the results are being validated using Ping. The parameter is determined in 2 different environments which is LOS, and LOS. Additionally, the measurement is made from a 10-meter to a 30-meter distance. The results indicate that the throughput value decreases with increasing distance where the lowest throughput value is 24.64 Mbps and the higher throughput value 70.83 Mbps. Next, the maximum latency value from measurement is 79ms while the lowest latency value is 56.09ms. Finally, this study established that the obstacle is a factor affecting the throughput and latency performance of the Wi-Fi network.
