Indication of wireless signal quality using detected errors in data

摘要

Techniques for indication of wireless signal quality are described. According to various implementations, attributes of a wireless signal are detected and processed to ascertain a quality of the wireless signal. Based on an ascertained signal quality, indicia of the signal quality can be exposed. For instance, an indication of wireless signal quality is communicated to an application and/or service that manages communication of media data. According to one or more embodiments, an application/service may perform one or more actions based on the indication of signal quality, such as a procedure to improve signal quality, a procedure to optimize wireless performance, and so forth.

1. A system comprising:
at least one processor; and one or more computer-readable storage media including instructions stored thereon that, responsive to execution by the at least one processor, cause the system to perform operations including:
receiving a signal strength value that indicates signal strength of a wireless signal used to communicate media data as part of communication between a client device and an endpoint device;ascertaining a quantity of errors detected in the wireless signal;determining an adjustment value based on the quantity of errors in the wireless signal;adjusting the signal strength value of the wireless signal using the adjustment value such that the adjusted signal strength value reflects a signal quality value for the wireless signal in accordance with the quantity of errors detected in the wireless signal; andoutputting an indication of the signal quality value for display on a display device based at least in part on the adjusted signal strength value.
