Moreover, it is necessary to increase or decrease the reference level by about 10dBm depending on the environment. The electric field strength measurement can be done by pushing [MEAS] key and by selecting the electric field strength measurement mode by [F4] key, and then by selecting [M304] as an antenna by [F1] key. However, it is not necessary to use the electric field strength measurement mode if the unit of standard is dBm or W. It is better that the receiving power is measured in the cha nnel power measurement mode because the antenna gain changes little at the span 100MHz.<\/p>\n<p>The channel power measurement can be done by pushing [MEAS] key and by selecting the channel power measurement mode by [F1] key, and then by selecting BAND by [F1] key. Secondly, the center (CNTR) and width (BAND) of the measured channel are set. The width, usually, is fixed to 20MHz. With the setting mentioned above , the receiving power of the sp ecified channel is displayed on the screen. However, if the channel power measurement mode is not turned of f while measuring, the measurement time becomes long.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, it is necessary to wait for considerable long time in the state of measurement in order to obtain a clear waveform, because the radio wave is periodically radiated only for a short time when the communication is not performed. A clear waveform can be obtained in a short time if a large amount of data can be compulsorily output.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n<section>\n<h2>he measurement example of the radio wave state which was measured at the four corners of the floor before installation of the access point<\/h2>\n<p>It is confirmed whether the disturbance noise and other access points exist by observing the radio wave in the range from 2400 to 2483.5MHz.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:0;margin-top:2em\"><i class=\"fas fa-circle\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> Photo1<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/eng\/image\/technology\/MSA338_Application_1_jp-01.gif\" alt=\"Photo1\" width=\"375\" height=\"283\">\n<p>\uff3bConclusion\uff3d<br>\nAny radio wave was not observed except at the setting frequency range (2.427 to 2.447GHz) of the access point.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n<section>\n<h2>The measurement examples of the electric field strength in the state that the access p oints are temporarily  installed and are fixed to the different channel number<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:0;margin-top:2em\"><i class=\"fas fa-circle\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> Photo2:One access point (channel1)<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/eng\/image\/technology\/MSA338_Application_1_jp-02.gif\" alt=\"Photo2\uff1aOne access point (channel1)\" width=\"393\" height=\"300\">\n<p>\uff3bConclusion\uff3d<br>\nThe bandwidth of the channel1 is about 20MHz and any other unnecessary spectrum is low level.
