RF Mapping Drive Test Walk-Through

Spike’s RF mapping analysis mode provides the tools for efficiently conducting RF measurements bound to a geographical location with results displayed on a map, and packs features designed for convenience. Measurements are heat-mapped based on an adjustable color or grayscale spectrum and can be directional for triangulation of an energy source. Audio Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) aides in intuitive eyes-free operation.

This document walks through the steps in detail of performing a drive test using the RF mapping features of the Spike spectrum analyzer software.
