Planning Your Sensor Placement

This section discusses the planning the placement of sensors.

Sensor Placement using ADSP

After you map out anticipated sensor locations, you can assess the effectiveness of coverage by correlating site survey data and assumptions discussed previously. You can also use the test procedure described here to validate sensor location.

Because sensors are passive devices that do not have the capability to transmit data, the process of determining sensor coverage depends on a reverse site survey process in which a device introduces a signal in your Wireless LAN, and then the signal is tracked through the facility using the deployed sensors.
