WL1807 - How Clients Share Throughput in AP Mode

Hi,

If I am using the WL1807 as an AP and I want to stream video to clients simultaneously, how does sharing the bandwidth work across the clients? Please see my examples below.

Scenarios (assuming 100Mbps max throughput)

50Mbps video, streaming limited to 2 clients (assuming other 8 connected clients are in PS)?

20Mbps video, streaming limited to 5 clients (assuming other 5 connected clients are in PS)?

10Mbps video, stream to all 10 clients?

Regards,

James

    Please see the below response from our expert


    ***
    Each STA that is in PS, we will save (guaranty) some memory even if there will be no traffic, so in general, each new STA connected (even in PS) will have impact on the TP.

    So 1 STA streaming, and 9 STA in PS, means the Max TP will drop from 100 to ~90 (I do not have the exact numbers)

    In case of all STA “split” the traffic, we made some measurements (with SISO20, but the principle is similar to SISO40 or MIMO)




    As you can see, there is some impact on the overall TP, but it is minimal
