Signal

Information about the modem's signal to nearby cellular towers.

Properties

Signal level

The signal level is a simplified indication of the quality of the cellular signal.

The thresholds used to calculate the signal strength are provided in the following two tables.

LTE/4G Level

The LTE level as determined as the lesser level of RSRP and SNR levels, and in the absense of RSRP or SNR, the RSSI level is used.

Level/BarsRSRPSNRRSSI
5>= -90dB>=10>= -75
4>= -100>= 5>= -85
3>= -110>= 1>= -95
2>= -120>= -5>= -105

3G Level

The 3G Level is a simple RSSI calculation.
