Software

  • RFmx WLAN
  • WLAN Test Toolkit

Issue Details

I am migrating from WLAN Test Toolkit to RFmx WLAN. I notice that RFmx WLAN test items do not include the MAC FCS measurement result that was available in WLAN Test Toolkit.
Why is the MAC FCS result not present in RFmx WLAN measurements?

Solution

In RFmx WLAN, the PSDU CRC measurement result is equivalent to the MAC FCS measurement result in WLAN Test Toolkit. Refer to the following image:

The PSDU CRC result includes the MAC FCS result. Therefore, both measurements correspond to each other, and the MAC FCS result is effectively represented within the PSDU CRC status in RFmx WLAN.
