Figure 6 Displaying WLAN services bound to the radio
The Noise Floor item in the table indicates various random electromagnetic waves during the wireless communication. For the environment with a high noise floor, you can improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by increasing the transmit power or reducing the noise floor.
The Service Type item in the table has three options: None, Access, and Mesh.
Res Using Ratio represents the resource utilization of a radio within a certain period. For example, in a period of 10 seconds, if a radio has occupied the channel for five seconds, the resource utilization of the radio is 5 seconds divided by 10 seconds: 50%.
