摘要: For the mobile users (MUs) installed with IEEE 802.11 wireless adapters, default best-signal-strength-based access point (AP) selection is limited since it does not consider fairness and multi-rate issues. In this paper, we propose a distributed AP algorithm for newly joining MU already associated MUs to be adaptive their order dynamic environment. We also prove stability of proposed analyze its complexity. Finally, extensive evaluations, show that scheme can greatly improve without significantly sacrificing efficiency.
