Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for controlling transmission power in a network having multiple access points (APs). In one aspect, by enabling control of transmission power adjustment operations, APs can effectively delivery data to stations (STAs) within the basis service set (BSS) in a manner that minimizes co-channel interference between nearby APs in the network. The transmission power adjustment operations may be used to generate an interference reduction plan that accounts for some or all of the traffic patterns in the network, the capacities of the APs in the network and the service needs of all the STAs in the network. In this manner, APs are afforded a more lenient approach to adequately delivering data to STAs within the BSS, while mitigating interference with other APs or STAs operating in nearby wireless coverage areas.
