Estimated Throughput (Mbps)

Estimated throughput assumes a general network efficiency of ~70% to account for protocol overhead, interference, and other real-world factors.

Formula Explained

The theoretical PHY (physical layer) data rate is calculated based on several key factors of the Wi-Fi signal. The formula is as follows:

Data Rate = (NSD × NSPS × R × NSS) / TSYM
