发明名称 Methods and apparatus for spectral scanning within a network
摘要 In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a spectral scanning controller configured to interrupt service at a wireless access point (WAP) such that the WAP performs spectral scanning during service interruption. The spectral scanning controller is configured to interrupt service at the WAP at a first scanning frequency when the spectral scanning controller is in a first configuration. The spectral scanning controller is configured to interrupt service at the WAP at a second scanning frequency different from the first scanning frequency when the spectral scanning controller is in a second configuration. The spectral scanning controller is configured to move from the first configuration to the second configuration in response to a change in at least one of a service demand, a service quality, a spectral scanning demand or a spectral scanning quality.

主权项 1. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor, the code comprising code to cause the processor to: receive, at a spectral scanning controller, a first indication of at least one of a service demand or a service quality associated with a wireless access point (WAP) during a first time period; determine a first scanning frequency based on the first indication, the first scanning frequency corresponding to a reciprocal of a first spectral scan period; determine a first amount of spectral reports based on the first indication; send a signal configured to cause the WAP to perform, at the first scanning frequency, spectral scanning during a second time period after the first time period, the spectral scanning during the second time period producing the first amount of spectral reports; receive, at the spectral scanning controller, a second indication of at least one of a service demand or a service quality associated with the WAP during a third time period after the second time period; determine a second scanning frequency based on the second indication, the second scanning frequency corresponding to a reciprocal of a second spectral scan period; determine a second amount of spectral reports based on the second indication; and send a signal configured to cause the WAP to perform, at the second scanning frequency, spectral scanning during a fourth time period after the third time period, the first scanning frequency being different than the second scanning frequency, the spectral scanning during the fourth time period producing the second amount of spectral reports, the first amount of spectral reports being different than the second amount of spectral reports.
