Description
Summary:This paper discussed on the congestion analysis in Wi-Fi network of Engineering Tower 2 due to overloading of traffic. The objectives proposed by the paper are to study and understand the concept of Wi-Fi network, congestion and overloading in Wi-Fi network. The paper also discussed about the factors that led to congestion in Wi-Fi networks and solutions to overcome them. Wi-Fi mapping tool ‘Ekahau HeatMapper’ and network scanner software named ‘inSSIDer’ were used to collect the data. Data collecting process were doneat Level 11, Engineering Tower 2 for three selected APs at selected points during noon, evening and night for five days. It was then analyzed and results were plotted using MATLAB and Microsoft Excel for better illustration and understanding. The research and analyzing process only covers and concentrate on congestion of Wi-Fi network in Engineering Tower 2 within the use of the 2.4GHz frequency that were deployed for wireless networks in Malaysia because most devices can operate on that band.
