Receiver Characterization
The IEEE 802.11 Standard specifies a minimum receiver sensitivity that all 802.11 devices must achieve. This sensitivity is specified as a receive power (in dBm) in which a device must achieve no worse than a 10% PER for PPDU receptions of 1000 octets. The receiver minimum input sensitivity requirements are specified in Section 18.3.10.2 of 802.11-2012 and are reproduced here:
Rate | Modulation / Coding | Minimum Sensitivity (dBm) |
---|---|---|
6 Mbps | BPSK 1/2 | -82 |
9 Mbps | BPSK 3/4 | -81 |
12 Mbps | QPSK 1/2 | -79 |
18 Mbps | QPSK 3/4 | -77 |
24 Mbps | 16-QAM 1/2 | -74 |
36 Mbps | 16-QAM 3/4 | -70 |
48 Mbps | 64-QAM 1/2 | -66 |
54 Mbps | 64-QAM 2/3 | -65 |
