METHOD AND RADIO STATION FOR FAIR AGGREGATION OF INTERNET BACKHAUL THROUGHPUT USING MULTIPLE ACCESS POINTS.

摘要

Method and single radio station for managing station throughputs from a wireless multiple access points backhaul. The method comprises using a single radio interface per station to connect stations to one or more access points (AP1, AP2, AP3), and scheduling the throughput there for by determining a throughput request Tik for a station (k) to an access point (APi), based on a previously received or requested throughput Tik, and calculating a corresponding duty cycle fik during which said station (k) needs to connect to said access point (APi) to receive said requested throughput Tik. The single radio station is arranged for performing the scheduling and parameter estimation of the method and communicating means for connecting a station (k) to an access point (APi) according to the obtained scheduling.
