Beacon Count value

Could anyone please explain what is the Beacon Count under Link Quality Indicator statistics?

Dilshan,

On PMP equipment, each frame in the downlink coming from an AP contains a Beacon, which includes information about the AP’s configuration, and is used by the SMs to detect the presence of a suitable AP and determine its capabilities. The Beacon Quality indicator percentage captures how clearly the SM is able to see/parse those beacons. Generally, for well-aligned equipment, this value is at or close to 100%. Values lower than this can lead to connection issues and may point to poor RF or alignment issues.
