PROMOTING WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORK (WLAN) ROAMING |
摘要 |
The present disclosure describes promoting roaming of a wireless terminal in a wireless local area network (WLAN). The AP obtains signal quality and/or data transmission quality of the wireless terminal periodically, and determines whether the obtained signal quality and/or data transmission quality of the wireless terminal satisfies a predetermined threshold. Upon determining that the predetermined threshold is not satisfied, the AP proactively sends a probe response frame to the wireless terminal. The probe response frame notifies the wireless terminal of a wireless signal strength of the AP to promote roaming to a neighbouring AP. |

1. A method for promoting roaming of a wireless terminal in a wireless local area network (WLAN), the method being applicable at an access point (AP) and comprising:
the AP obtaining signal quality and/or data transmission quality of the wireless terminal periodically; the AP determining whether the obtained signal quality and/or data transmission quality of the wireless terminal satisfies a predetermined threshold; and upon determining that the predetermined threshold is not satisfied, the AP proactively sending a probe response frame to the wireless terminal, wherein the probe response frame notifies the wireless terminal of a wireless signal strength provided by the AP to promote roaming to a neighbouring AP. |
