Through a series of case studies, we will also highlight success stories in Japan, showcasing the tangible impacts of these surveys. Join us as we delve into the intricacies of conducting effective wireless surveys, demonstrating our commitment to enhancing wireless connectivity across Japan.
Types of Wireless Surveys Available in Japan
In Japan, various types of wireless surveys are crucial for ensuring optimal network performance and coverage. Here, we detail the key surveys that businesses can utilise:
Predictive Wireless Surveys
Predictive wireless surveys are essential during the planning phase. By using specialised software, we simulate the wireless environment based on factors such as wall type, AP placement, and user density. This virtual assessment helps in designing a network that ensures efficient performance by recommending the type, quantity, and locations of access points, although it does not account for external interference’s.
Active Wireless Surveys
Performed during or after network implementation, active wireless surveys involve sending test signals to assess the network’s real-time performance. This type of survey is critical as it provides data on how the network performs under actual usage conditions, allowing for adjustments in network settings or the addition of access points to enhance performance and coverage.
Passive Wireless Surveys
Conducted after network installation, passive wireless surveys use specialised equipment to analyse the wireless signals within the environment. This survey identifies coverage gaps, interference issues, and areas of weak signal strength, which are crucial for optimising network performance.
Health Check Wireless Surveys
Health check surveys are conducted onsite to diagnose and resolve potential issues within an existing network. Our certified engineers analyse the network’s integrity, identify the sources of problems, and recommend solutions. These surveys are vital for maintaining the network’s health and ensuring business continuity.
Post-Installation Wireless Surveys
After the network setup, post-installation wireless surveys verify that the network meets the business requirements for coverage, interference management, and capacity. This final step ensures that the wireless network is optimised for current and future needs, providing clients with the assurance of a well-designed network.
Our team at Fortitude Nicsa Global, with offices across APAC and Japan, leverages these survey types using advanced tools like Ekahau to deliver precise and reliable wireless surveys throughout Japan. This comprehensive approach ensures that our clients enjoy robust and efficient wireless network performance tailored to their specific needs.
Tools and Technologies Used for Wireless Surveys:
Survey Software
We utilise a range of advanced survey software to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of our wireless surveys. Notably, our toolkit includes Ekahau Pro WiFi survey software as well as the latest Ekahau Sidekick 2’s, which are pivotal in preventing investment waste by aiding in precise network planning and troubleshooting. Additionally, Ekahau Site Survey software serves as a powerful RF modelling tool, allowing for both on-site measurements and predictive surveys of yet-to-be-deployed WLANs.
Hardware and Access Points
To support the predictive surveys and simulations of WiFi coverage, we provide various brands and models of wireless access points (APs). Our certified technicians are equipped with tools like the Pad and Sidekick, enabling them to efficiently conduct continuous active and passive onsite surveys. This equipment is essential for gathering accurate data on the network’s performance in real-time conditions.
Testing and Validation Equipment
Our approach to ensuring the highest standards in wireless network performance includes comprehensive testing and validation. This process involves using WiFi analysers and management software, which allow for detailed analysis and management of WiFi networks. Additionally, tools like Ekahau are integral for diagnosing network issues and ensuring compliance with design and security standards.
By integrating these sophisticated tools and technologies, we at Fortitude Nicsa Global, with our strategic presence in APAC and Japan, are equipped to offer top-tier Ekahau Wireless Surveys across Japan. This capability ensures our clients receive optimised wireless solutions tailored to their specific needs, enhancing overall network performance and reliability.
Key Benefits of Conducting Wireless Surveys:
Improved Network Performance
Conducting wireless surveys is essential for ensuring that your network delivers optimal performance. By using tools like Ekahau during these surveys, we can accurately measure and analyse Wi-Fi data rates and co-channel interference. This allows us to discover any hidden access points and assess the radio frequency (RF) environment meticulously. Such detailed analysis helps in identifying the most suitable locations for access points and the best channel and power settings, which significantly enhances the overall network performance and reliability.
Enhances Security Measures
A key advantage of performing wireless surveys is the enhancement of network security. During the survey, we detect and analyse noise levels and potential rogue access points, which could pose security threats. By identifying these risks early, we can implement strategies to mitigate them, ensuring a secure wireless environment. This proactive approach not only secures the network but also protects against data breaches and unauthorised access, making it an essential practice for maintaining robust network security.
Optimises Capacity and Coverage
Wireless surveys play a crucial role in optimising the capacity and coverage of your network. Through these surveys, we can ensure sufficient bandwidth and throughput to support critical business applications and services. This is achieved by strategically placing access points and fine-tuning their settings based on the detailed insights gained from the survey. Additionally, by identifying areas with weak signals or dead zones, we can take appropriate measures to enhance coverage, thereby improving user experience and ensuring seamless connectivity across all areas of your premises.
Our commitment at Fortitude Nicsa Global, with our extensive presence in APAC and Japan, is to provide comprehensive wireless survey services using state-of-the-art Ekahau technology.
