     116
     117=== Usage Example ===
     118
     119To set AWGN on channel 36 at -30 dBm on all four antennas use the following sequence (either through a browser or '''wget'''). '''By default, the additional attenuation on all antennas is zero which means that the injected power is equally distributed. To create unequal distributions, users can use the antenna-atten-X option with the appropriate attenuation setting in dB to suppress noise in parts of the grid as desired'''
     120
     121 * Step 1: Initialize the "interference" mode of the service
     122    {{{
     123          wget http://instrument1.orbit-lab.org:5012/interference/initialize
     124    }}}
     125 * Step 2: Select AWGN bandwidth (channel bw for 802.11a/b/g is 20 Mhz)
     126    {{{
     127          wget http://instrument1.orbit-lab.org:5012/interference/awgn?bandwidth=20
     128    }}}
     129 * Step 3: Set power level to -30 dBm and channel number to 36 (PLEASE AVOID SETTING POWER OVER 0dBm)
     130    {{{
     131          wget http://instrument1.orbit-lab.org:5012/interference/set?power=-30&channel=36
     132    }}}
     133  * Step 4: Start RF injection
     134    {{{
     135          wget http://instrument1.orbit-lab.org:5012/interference/start
     136    }}}
     137
     138At the end of the experiment,
     139 * Step 5: Stop RF injection
     140    {{{
     141          wget http://instrument1.orbit-lab.org:5012/interference/stop
     142    }}}
