WiFi Surveys (Ekahau)
WiFi Surveys (Ekahau).
Design, validate, and optimize wireless networks with precision.
Overview
What is WiFi Surveys (Ekahau)?
WiFi survey services use specialized tools (primarily Ekahau AI Pro and Ekahau Sidekick) to measure, model, and optimize wireless network performance. Surveys produce detailed heatmaps of signal strength, noise, interference, channel utilization, and throughput. Results inform access point placement, channel planning, and power-level configuration to deliver reliable, high-performance wireless connectivity.
DELIVERABLES
What we deliver.
PROCESS
Five-phase engagement.
- 1
Requirements Gathering
Understand your wireless use cases, device types, density targets, and application requirements (voice, video, data).
- 2
Floor Plan Preparation
Obtain or create scaled floor plans, annotate wall materials and construction types, and calibrate the Ekahau model.
- 3
Survey Execution
Conduct the predictive, AP-on-a-stick, or validation survey across all areas, collecting data at representative measurement points.
- 4
Analysis & Design
Analyze survey data, optimize AP placement and radio settings, and generate heatmaps and coverage recommendations.
- 5
Report Delivery
Present findings in a detailed report with actionable recommendations, a bill of materials, and the Ekahau project file.

COMPARE
Which WiFi survey fits?
Pick two or three options to compare. Many projects use more than one.
| Best for | New builds, fit-outs and early budgeting | Existing offices, warehouses and sites with difficult construction | Handover, audits and coverage complaints |
|---|---|---|---|
| Needs the building to exist | No | Yes | Yes, with the network installed |
| Main input | Floor plans and material data | A walk of every area with survey equipment | The installed network and the design targets |
| What you receive | Estimated access point count, positions and channels | Measured heatmaps, interference findings and confirmed positions | Coverage checked against targets, with a list of fixes |
| Main limit | Depends on accurate plans and material data | Needs access to every area that requires coverage | Shows what is wrong but is not a new design |
