[PATCH v5 0/4] hostapd: Add ACS support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This v5 addresses some shortcomings with the original
logarithmic computations where the long double did not
suffice for surveys with a lot of noise. We cap the
values now and also use logarithm identities to simplify
the computations. The license is also now following the
license of the other files in place.

With this I get:

mcgrof@mouche ~/hostap/hostapd (git::master)$ grep acs /home/mcgrof/wpa/hostapd.conf
channel=acs_survey
acs_num_req_surveys=5
acs_roc_duration_ms=5

mcgrof@mouche ~/hostap/hostapd (git::master)$ sudo ./hostapd /home/mcgrof/wpa/hostapd.conf 
Configuration file: /home/mcgrof/wpa/hostapd.conf
ACS: automatic channel selection started, this may take a bit
ACS: Ideal chan: 149 (5745 MHz) Average interference factor: -4.000000
Using interface wlan0 with hwaddr 00:03:7f:11:a3:f3 and ssid 'pogo'

I have verified the results by using the acs.git code:
mcgrof@mouche ~/acs (git::master)$ sudo ./acs wlan0
