Context by signal

Most network analysis tools are built for use by professionals in corporate environments. These tools are costly, they require professional training, and their use is generally restricted to site planning and monitoring. Packet analysis is highly specialized, narrowly scoped, and expensive. The greater the transmission speed, the greater the volume of data. The data overhead adds to the complexity. Density and opacity constrain use.

Context By Signal℠ analyzes packet captures to construct context and enlarge the scope of what we know about the wireless world around us. This world is our environment.

The services we offer are useful at home and on the job. If you can do a wireless packet capture, we can use that capture to tell you about your context.

The point of capture is the observation point. The more packet captures you collect, the more observation points you make them from, the greater the visibility of the wireless environment.

Site planners need context to provision networks. WiFi users need context to network at home and on the go. Greater context makes it easier to differentiate typical patterns of use from those that are anomalous. At home or at work, wireless context makes it easier to create usable networks.
