Abstract: A system for mobile metering. The system comprises a plurality of white space meters, wherein the white space meters are not connected to a network and are communicatively coupled to each other, wherein a white space meter within the plurality of white space meters is designated a collector; and a field device connected to a mobile communication device for accessing at least one white space meter in the plurality of white space meters in order to perform at least one task, wherein the field device comprises a task list, the task list comprising the at least one task to be performed on at least one white space meter.

Abstract: Measured data, such as WLAN data, are received. The measured data are compared with expected data, such as expected WLAN data. Expected WLAN data can be generated from various sources, for example floor plan data and access point data (e.g., quantity, placement, and/or configuration). Based on such measured data, WLAN features can be changed, such as floor plan and/or access point data (e.g., quantity, placement, and/or configuration).

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses of planning a wireless local area network are disclosed. Various embodiments receive data such as floor plan data, coverage data, and/or capacity data about a site for the WLAN. Based on such data, features of the WLAN access points can be determined. Examples are the quantity, placement, and/or configuration of the access points.
