Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, a device, system or method can be utilized during a validation survey of a region or premises to determine a location of an access point and to extract a unique identifier for the access point, synchronize the validation survey data, and then provision such data to a management system.

Abstract: A device can detect radio frequency (RF) signals in a physical environment using one or more antennas of a device. The device can generate RF measurements based on the RF signals. The device can also generate a multi-dimensional model of the physical environment based on sensor information from one or more sensors of the device. For example, the multi-dimensional model could be a 2D or 3D floor plan of the physical environment. The device can then map the RF measurements to locations in the multi-dimensional model. In some implementations, the device can configure a graphical user interface to display the multi-dimensional model and the mapping. For example, the display could represent a heat map for determining a change to a network. Other aspects are also described and claimed.

Abstract: A method for producing a recommendation for how to arrange a target wireless network. Input data is obtained about a target wireless network, and the input data is analyzed to produce a recommendation for how to arrange the target wireless network. The recommendation when carried out changes an aspect of the target wireless network as measured through or reflected in an indicator. Other aspects are also described and claimed.

Abstract: To facilitate disturbance measurements within a WLAN network, a portable measuring device is introduced. The portable measuring device comprises at least a casing, one or more interfaces to detachably connect an external device to the portable measuring device, a processor placed in the casing, one or more antennas, two simultaneously operating radios placed in the casing, one or more power sources placed in the casing, and a power switch.
