Additional Considerations for Mobile Operation
Consider the following key points for all mobile installations:
• Use connectionware—The use of connectionware in the mobile lap-
tops is highly recommended for better operation of a mobile data
system. GE MDS provides connectionware from one of the vendors
in this market. Contact your factory representative for details.
• Plan your network coverage—Deploy Access Points so that they
provide overlapping coverage with each other. Access Points must
use the same Network Name to enable roaming service.
• Set the RSSI Threshold to -85 dBm—This level is typically used for
mobile systems with good performance. Make sure there is overlap-
ping coverage of more than one AP to provide continuous coverage.
• At every AP Radio, review the following settings when providing
service to mobile remotes:
•
—Set to
TDD Sync
•
—Each AP should be different. Cell planning is

required if there are overlaps.
•
—Set the same on all APs.

Compression
disabled
pression is best performed by the connectionware running on
the mobile laptop PC. Gains in efficiency are made because
connectionware compresses data at a higher stack level, and it
aggregates multiple data frames and streams into a single
packet. Compression at the radio level, although highly effi-
cient, works only at the individual packet level.
