Wi-Fi throughput
Throughput test setup
Environment: Shield Room - Over the Air
Access Point: Asus AX88u
DUT: AW611 uBlox (Module: U-BLOX_Jody_W5 M.2) with EVK-MIMXRT1180 EVKA platform
DUT Power Source: External power supply
Client: Apple MacBook Air
Channel: 6 | 36
Wi-Fi application: wifi_wpa_supplicant
Compiler used to build application: armgcc
Compiler Version: gcc-arm-none-eabi-13.2
iPerf commands used in test:
TCP TX
iperf -c <remote_ip> -t 60
TCP RX
iperf -s
UDP TX
iperf -c <remote_ip> -t 60 -u -B <local_ip> -b 120
Note: The default rate is 100 Mbps.
UDP RX
iperf -s -u -B <local_ip>
Note: Read more about the throughput test setup and topology in 2.
