 Sieve RF Data
Filtering PC Software
Sieve
is a Windows XP application that generates 40 Lambda averaged data
that was collected from Berkeley's Gator stimulus Class A transmitter and
Coyote modular receiver combination. The
transmitter/receiver/software package is being distributed to
WiMAX engineers, technicians and installers interested in
optimizing their 2.5 and 3.4 GHz networks.
Sieve
is able to generate 40 Lambda averaged data into ASCII files
through high-speed, two-stage filtering of redundant data. This
data is received on one or two different Coyote receiver modules
that may be swapped out while still in the field. In addition, the
software also allows creation of KML files to map measured data
onto programs such as GoogleEarth. When combined with powerful
BVS transmitter and receiver combos,
Sieve
filtering software provides the best averaging options and
reliability analysis in its class. |

 Yellowjacket 802.11b/a/n/g Wi-Fi Analyzer
Yellowjacket B/A/N/G
is a wireless test receiver system that demodulates, sweeps,
analyzes, and optimizes all popular 802.11 Wi-Fi network
standards including 802.11b/g (2.4 GHz), 802.11n, and even
802.11a (5 GHz). The calibrated receiver is a passive
measurement device that is network independent so it remains
"invisible" to any
802.11 Wi-Fi network.
Yellowjacket B/A/N/G is also a powerful spectrum
analyzer that measures RF energy (2.0-4.0 & 4.9-5.9 GHz)
allowing not only detailed interference analysis but the
ability to see the "whole picture" of your 2.4 and 5 GHz
network WISP or hotspot.
When equipped with a BVS DF (Direction Finding) antenna,
Yellowjacket B/A/N/G
locates and pinpoints rogue APs and STAs and even detects
interference from sources such as microwave ovens and
cordless phones.
Powerful packet analysis features such as Multipath (Ec/Io),
SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio), Delay Spread, Channel Frequency
Response (CFR), SSID and Received Signal Strength Indicator
(RSSI) give Yellowjacket
B/A/N/G the distinction of being the only true
handheld RF spectrum protocol analysis and direction finding
tool accurate to within +1 dB.
Yellowjacket B/A/N/G functions as a complete WLAN
analysis system offering both measurements made through
packet demodulation and spectrum analysis in a rugged,
handheld package.

Windows XP tablet UMPC spectrum analyzer and 802.11b/a/n/g packet
demodulator. The calibrated receiver measures between 2.0 - 5.9 GHz
covering such popular wireless bands including Wi-Fi, Wi-MAX, ISM,
Public Safety, Bluetooth and more.
Powerful spectrum analysis features include user selectable power
triggers, 3 pairs of markers, video smoothing, waveform averaging, 1
live trace and up to 4 peak hold waveform traces with peak hold/
search. This advanced spectrum analysis allows
YELLOWJACKET-TABLET to display
areas of RF interference. The receiver is a passive device and
"invisible" to the network making it easier to identify hackers,
rogue APs and other sorts of RF interference.
YELLOWJACKET-TABLET interface
offers a large 7" WVGA LCD touch-screen featuring 1.33 GHz Intel
PentiumR processor.
Yellowjacket-TABLET demodulates
all 802.11b/a/n/g packets providing device MAC address, SSID,
channel number, data rates, encryption, modulation scheme,
device/packet type and more while SINGLE DEVICE SURVEY MODE supports
full packet, traffic and multipath analysis. Once users have
detected a specific AP or STA, they can "lock onto" those packets to
locate it using an optional direction finding antenna. Unlike other
packet sniffers and signal strength meters, Berkeley's receiver
technology measures RSSI to within +1.0 dB of any nearby 802.11
packet on or off your network.
This realtime measurement is useful in determining total channel
power, multipath and WISP antenna alignments. |

channel, preset and log settings ensure that
Nectar software is able to distinguish your network's signal
strength from other networks and sources of RF interference. Laptop or
PC control via USB and ethernet creates customized, time-stamped log
files for true 24/7 monitoring. Recorder spectrum analysis data may be
replayed and reviewed at anytime on a PC. In addition, JPEG/BMP

 Honeycomb RF
Interference Mapping Software
HoneyComb
is an interference-mapping tool with the use of BVS
Bumble Bee. It consists of three parts: Projector, Collector, and
Analyzer. Sources of interference can be separated from 802.11 WLAN
signals, allowing the user to graph severity of interference,
percentage of channel capacity remaining and other significant
interference related quantities. HoneyComb
aids in locating jamming interference, unintentional interference,
network intrusion as well as channel verification.
HoneyComb will also map all likely
signal sources and strengths for helping to clear "RF free zones".
Floorplans or site maps can be used as a reference to collect data
leaving the resulting interference maps to be overlayed onto
floorplans for easy identification of interference prone areas. |
