Relative airtime fairness in a wireless network

摘要

A device may generate a frame including data to be provided to a client device. The data may be associated with a rate corresponding to the client device. The device may determine rate information, associated with a set of client devices, that identifies the rate and one or more other rates. The device may determine a relative frame transmission time (RFTT) associated with the frame. The device may determine a frame scheduling number (FSN), associated with the frame, based on the RFTT. The device may schedule the frame for provision to the client device based on the FSN. The device may provide the frame to the client device based on scheduling the FSN. The frame may be provided to cause relative airtime fairness between a first group of frames, corresponding to the rate, and a second group of frames, corresponding to the one or more other rates, to be achieved.
