Overview to optimize the overall performance of a xirrus wlan in an outdoor deployment it is important to understand how to maximize coverage with the appropriate antenna selection and placement. This document is meant to serve as a guideline for anyone who wishes to use xirrus’ antennas and related...

Orientation. A simple straight wire antenna will have one polarization when mounted vertically and a different polarization when mounted horizontally. A linear polarized antenna radiates wholly in one plain containing the direction of propagation of the radio wave while, in a circular polarized ante...

Design considerations and reference use cases there are several factors that impact the performance of a wireless lan and must be kept in mind while designing for a deployment. Some of the key considerations are as follows: mobility of the application: the mobility of the clients that will be connec...

And antenna locations must be considered. For short distances (several hundred feet), a standard dipole antenna may be used. For very large distances (1/2 mile or more) high-gain directional antennas must be used. The antennas must be installed as high as possible, above obstructions such as trees, ...
