The Wireless Local Area Network Planning Tool, developed by Michael Kram and Sumit Sanyal in May 2004, provides essential features for effective network planning. Key functionalities include loading and saving floor plans, placing access points, and furniture selection. The tool calculates signal quality and data rate by considering factors like attenuation and refraction. It also visualizes access point coverage, quality amount, and efficiency. With an accuracy range of 2 cm to 20 cm, this tool facilitates cheap and efficient network design while evaluating effects from external factors, ensuring optimal client connectivity.
