A. AP transmit power
B. Channel utilization
C. Signal loss
D. Update ARP tables
E. Antenna gain
F. AP association time

Selected Answer: AE

Signal loss is a generic term, in the context of EIRP antenna gain makes more sense: "Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) is calculated as the sum of transmit power, antenna cable/connector loss, and antenna gain."

Selected Answer: AC

EIRP is the signal being sent out from the site's Access Points, you are ensuring the values of this signal through adjusting AP power & verifying signal loss.

I went with AE too, but now I see why it is AC. You can't replace or fix antenna gain like you can signal loss. Just a thought of something I found online.

and I just realized too, it is not so much about the EIRP but also being able to modify, fix, change the wireless controller to fix the EIRP.

vceUP says AP transmit power and Antenna gain. "AP transmit power: You should check if your APs have sufficient power output and adjust them if needed. You should also make sure they are not exceeding regulatory limits for your region. Antenna gain: You should check if your antennas have adequate gain for your coverage area and replace them if needed. You should also make sure they are aligned properly and not obstructed by any objects. In the scenario described, the wireless controller is measuring a low EIRP value compared to the recommendations noted in the most recent site survey. EIRP is the combination of the power transmitted by the access point and the antenna gain. Therefore, to increase the EIRP value to meet the site survey's specifications, the administrator should verify or replace the AP transmit power (option A) and the antenna gain (option E). This can be achieved by adjusting the transmit power settings on the AP or by replacing the AP's antenna with one that has a higher gain"

chatGPT: To improve the EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power) value and meet the site survey's specifications for better wireless performance in the areas of an industrial plant, the following two factors should be verified or replaced: A. AP transmit power: The transmit power of the wireless access points (APs) should be checked. If the transmit power is set too low, it can result in weak signal strength and poor coverage. Increasing the transmit power can help improve the EIRP value and enhance wireless performance in the affected areas. E. Antenna gain: The antenna gain refers to the ability of the antennas to focus the signal in a specific direction. Antennas with higher gain provide better coverage and can help overcome signal loss due to obstacles or distance. Upgrading the antennas with higher gain can improve the EIRP value and extend the reach of the wireless signal. Therefore, to address the reported poor wireless performance and align with the site survey's specifications, verifying or replacing the AP transmit power and antenna gain are the recommended actions.

I also picked A and E as the best choices. I think some of the other answers could also be relevant, however I'm voting A and E to boost the community vote because I'm pretty confident those are the 2 CompTIA is looking for.

Selected Answer: AE

A. AP transmit power E. Antenna gain To improve EIRP values, the transmit power of the AP or the antenna gain can be increased. Channel utilization and signal loss do not directly affect the EIRP value, and ARP tables and AP association time are not relevant to wireless performance.
