METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SELECTING A MULTI-BAND ACCESS POINT TO ASSOCIATE WITH A MULTI-BAND MOBILE STATION

摘要

PURPOSE: A method and apparatus for selecting a multi-band access point are provided to optimize the throughput of a multi-band AP(Access Point) by providing the quality matrix of each frequency band to a multi-band WTRU(Wireless Transmission and Reception Unit). CONSTITUTION: A plurality of multi-band AP broadcasts frequency band information for a multi-frequency band(305). The multi-frequency band is constructed for operating each multi-band AP. A multi-band WTRU processes and receives the frequency-band information(310). One specific multi-band AP related to the multi-band WTRU and a frequency band for communicating with the multi-band AP are selected based on the frequency band information(315).
