    Abstract: Examples perform regulatory-compliant traffic checks for a wider bandwidth than a WLAN channel an AP is currently operating over before temporarily increasing the WLAN channel to the wider bandwidth to serve Wi-Fi ranging requests with improved precision. An example AP may: (1) while performing non-ranging Wi-Fi operations over a WLAN channel of a first bandwidth, perform a regulatory-compliant traffic check to determine whether a second bandwidth is clear of priority traffic, wherein the second bandwidth is wider than the first bandwidth; (2) responsive to receiving a Wi-Fi ranging request and determining the second bandwidth is clear of priority traffic, modify the WLAN channel from the first bandwidth to the second bandwidth to serve the Wi-Fi ranging request; and (3) upon completed service of the Wi-Fi ranging request, restore the WLAN channel to the first bandwidth for performing non-ranging Wi-Fi operations.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for uninterrupted multiple basic service set identifiers (MBSSIDs). In various embodiments, an MBSSID virtual access point (VAP) can be generated to facilitate an uninterrupted MBSSID. An access point (AP) can determine characteristics, or network properties, of VAPs associated with the AP. The AP can generate an MBSSID VAP based on the characteristics of the VAPs. An MBSSID beacon can be generated using the MBSSID VAP as a transmitted VAP (TX VAP) of the MBSSID beacon. The MBSSID VAP serves as a TX-VAP that is not subject to changes and does not need to be interrupted to have changes made to it. As the MBSSID VAP serves as a TX VAP that is not subject to changes or interruptions, the MBSSID based on the MBSSID VAP does not need to be interrupted for changes to be made to other VAPs associated with the MBSSID.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining a physical location of access points in a wireless network that include a plurality of access points, the plurality of access points in the wireless network including anchor access points with respective known locations and unanchored access points without respective known locations, may include: a first plurality of unanchored access points neighboring the anchor access points receiving known-location information from the anchor access points, performing range measurements to the anchor access points to determine their respective locations in the wireless network, thereby becoming pseudo-anchor access points; a second plurality of unanchored access points in communicative contact with a plurality of the pseudo-anchor points receiving the determined-location information from the pseudo-anchor access points, performing range measurements to the pseudo-anchor access points to determine their respective locations in the wireless network, thereby becoming pseudo-anchor access points.
