Each station will join the multicast pool. The test should be repeated to verify consistency. A Packet Error Rate will be calculated for each individual station. No attempt is made to measure the transmit power levels. Traffic between an AP and Station should be either translation or encapsulation.
Translation is preferred.
PC performance can affect the UDP packet reception. Performance of the AP receiver and Station transmitter pair is not tested. The station transmitter may be tested in an ad hoc mode. The configuration includes multiple devices running common applications. The first set of testing includes connecting the access points to the distribution system with a server on the network.
