Abstract

A method for performing client steering control in a multi-AP network and associated apparatus are provided. The method includes: utilizing a controller of a controller-agent-client architecture of the multi-AP network to obtain multiple metrics from interactions between logical entities of the controller-agent-client architecture; calculating Basic Service Set (BSS) scores of a set of BSSs according to the multiple metrics, respectively, for selecting a best BSS from the set of BSSs according to the BSS scores; and in response to a time measurement count reaching a predetermined threshold, utilizing the controller to trigger at least one operation related to at least the agents, to allow the best BSS to be selected as a target BSS for roaming, thereby enhancing overall performance of the multi-AP network, wherein the time measurement count corresponds to length of time that the best BSS keeps having highest score of the BSS scores.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a wireless network, especially a method and device for operating and controlling a user terminal in a multi-access point network. Background technique [0002] According to related art, multiple access points in a home network can be connected or configured together. Since the Wi-Fi Alliance (Wi-Fi ) provides a control communication protocol between access points and data objects for related control. Devices that conform to this standard are very helpful in implementing home networks. However, certain problems remain. For example, while the standard may specify information exchange, it lacks implementation details for client manipulation, etc. (e.g., how to design The overall performance can be enhanced at a substantial additional cost). Therefore, there is a need for a novel method and related architecture to enhance overall performance with no or less side effects. Contents of the invention [0003] Therefore,...
