ACCESS POINT SELECTION BASED ON BACKHAUL MEASUREMENTS

摘要

A method of providing network data to a Station includes receiving, by an Access Point of a plurality of Access Points, a request for network link data output by the Station, to be used by the Station in deciding which of the plurality of Access Points to connect to; initiating, by the Access Point, backhaul measurements over a wireless network that includes the Access Point and a Gateway; obtaining and storing, by the Access Point, backhaul measurement data based on the backhaul measurements performed; and providing the backhaul measurement data to the Station.
