Enabling and Disabling Gratuitous Probe Response

Gratuitous Probe Response (GPR) aids in conserving battery power in dual mode phones that support
cellular and WLAN modes of operation. GPR is available on 5-Ghz radios and is disabled by default.
You can configure two GPR settings:
•
•
Selecting a longer period reduces the amount of RF bandwidth consumed by the GPR with the possibility
of shorter battery life. Selecting higher transmission speeds also reduces the amount of bandwidth
consumed but at the expense of a smaller cell size.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable GPR and set its parameters:
OL-14209-01
Period—This setting determines the time between GPR transmissions in Kusec intervals from 10 to
255 (similar to the beacon period)
Speed—The speed is the data rate used to transmit the GPR
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enter interface configuration mode for the radio interface. The
2.4-GHz radio is radio 0, and the 5-GHz radio is radio 1.
The 802.11n 2.4-GHz radio is radio 0
The 802.11n 5-GHz radio is radio 1.
Specifies the resultant gain of the antenna attached to the
device. Enter a value from –128 to 128 dB. If necessary, you
can use a decimal in the value, such as 1.5.
This setting does not affect the behavior of the wireless
Note
device; it only informs the WLSE on your network of
the device's antenna gain.
Set the receive antenna to diversity, left, middle, right, or all.
For best performance with two antennas, leave the
Note
receive antenna setting at the default setting, diversity.
For one antenna, attach the antenna on the right and set
the antenna for right.
Set the transmit antenna to diversity, left, or right.
For best performance with two antennas, leave the
Note
receive antenna setting at the default setting, diversity.
For one antenna, attach the antenna on the right and set
the antenna for right.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
