Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure implement techniques that allow the serving AP to obtain signal quality information over backhaul link from one or more target APs as it relates to one or more STAs that are currently being served by the serving AP. The target APs may measure signal quality between the target AP and the STA by observing uplink communication between the STA and the serving AP that may be broadcasted over the network. Based on the signal quality information received by the serving AP from one or more target APs, the serving AP may determine whether the signal quality for the STA would improve if the STA shifts from the serving AP to the target AP.
