Hi,
in order to compare the performance between antenna-diversity on and off
I did a quick test with the following sysctl settings:
# antenna-diversity on
dev.ath.0.diversity=1
# antenna-diversity off
dev.ath.0.diversity=0
dev.ath.0.txantenna=1
dev.ath.0.rxantenna=2
The performance was pretty much the same but I noticed that the
link-quality reported by my laptop was notable lower with enabled
antenna-diversity (AD):
~ 43/70 (AD on)
~ 51/70 (AD off)
I've read a few things about AD on Wikipedia and it seems to be a good
technique to achieve a better signal quality but OTOH there are people
who recommend turning it off to get a better signal quality.
So whats actually true here?
Thanks,
Petar
