5.2 Sensitivity Measurements

Sensitivity is measured by configuring the device to RX statistics mode, transmitting the data from ESG, and collecting the statistics from the device.

The sensitivity can be calculated using the statistics from the device (number of transmitted packets, number of received packets, and the number of good packets).

The default mode of the device is Operational mode, in which the device receives packets but does not gather statistics.
