Method And Apparatus For Using Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) Filtering To Provide Air-Time Optimization In Wireless Networks

摘要

A method, apparatus and computer program product for using Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) filtering to provide air-time optimization in wireless networks is presented. At least one message is received at an Access Point (AP) from a mobile unit (MU). A determination is made by the AP whether a received Signal Strength indicator (RSSI) associated with the at least one message from an MU is greater than a predetermined threshold. When the RSSI value associated with the at least one message from na MU is greater than to said predetermined threshold, then a response is generated by the AP and sent to the MU.
