Automatic channel testing method of wireless router

Abstract

The invention provides an automatic channel testing method of a wireless router. The method comprises the following steps: step (1): setting the radio frequency of a plurality of APs as a plurality ofdifferent channels to serve as iperf servers to start a traffic running process and WDS bridging servers; step (2): using a plurality of other APs as WDS bridging clients to respectively bridge AP devices and using as iperf clients to start the traffic running process; and step (3) when an automatic channel n is tested, closing two APs corresponding to the channel n, placing a device to be testedin the environment, and checking a selection result, wherein n is polled from 1 to 13, that is, a complete test is performed on the automatic selection of the entire wireless full channel. By adoption of the automatic channel testing method provided by the invention, a fixed test environment for performing wireless automatic channel selection is provided; and the test environment is stable, and the test data are accurate and reliable and can be used as the basis for the automatic channel selection test.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the testing field of wireless automatic channel selection of testing products, in particular to an automatic channel testing method of a wireless router. Background technique [0002] Since there is no automatic channel selection for testing in a fixed environment at present, and the automatic channel selection function of the company's products supports full channel selection (1 to 13 channels), if it is necessary to control the interference of all channels, it requires a lot of resources and equipment, which is relatively difficult, so currently only It can roughly verify the effectiveness of the function, but it is not accurate. The steps are as follows: [0003] The developer turns on the debug switch of the channel selection, and in the fifth-floor environment (large interference), judges whether the selected channel is optimal by checking the channel RSSI, the number of stations, and the noiseflood (channel busyness) fed ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] Although the current test technology can also test the effectiveness of the wireless channel automatic selection function, the result is not very accurate and has the following disadvantages:

[0007] The channel selection in the environment on the fifth floor is completely judged according to the debug log opened by the developer. The data provided by the background is completely provided by the wireless chip driver. If the wireless driver detection data is inaccurate, the judgment will be wrong, and we cannot judge at all;

[0009] Although there is less interference in the environment on the first floor, the environment is unstable, and the signal and busyness are changing at any time. Therefore, after selecting the channel and then running the traffic verification one by one, it is equivalent to conducting in a changing environment, and the accuracy is not high;

[0010] Combined with the current product experience, the channel experience of probabilistic automatic channel selection is poor and unstable, but when the channel with less interference is manually fixed, the problem of poor experience can be solved. This situation also exists in customer complaints. It can be seen that the current automatic channel selection function of our products is not ideal
