Hi,
Glad to see that someone is reaching out this way to contact a wireless architect.
In my day to day role I'm a wireless network architect.
Among others, I worked with different types of clients, Local Authorities, Councils and large venues in order to deliver projects similar to yours.
As I can see from your post, this initial project, Is so that you can understand more about WiFi/RF behaviour, and how can this be applied to your layout.
As I have experience with WLAN and LAN with multiple vendors, a full solution can be achieved in a professional manner.
There a couple of challenges to tackle with projects like this one. From possible instal points, power points, listed buildings, mashed or wired networks, guest portal with different types of authentication, estimated number of clients and desired data rates to be delivered.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
Best regards,
Andrew
