Abstract
Systems and methods for controlling a wireless network receive data from wireless access points within a wireless network and use the data in a model of the wireless network to identify allowable transitions between states defined by the model. Parameters for the wireless access points are adjusted to initiate transitions between the states and, based on the transitions, the model is updated.
Claims20
A method for controlling a wireless network, the method comprising:
- obtaining data from wireless access points in a wireless network;
- using the data in a model of the wireless network to identify allowable transitions between states, the states being defined by the model;
- adjusting one or more parameters for one or more of the wireless access points to initiate one or more transitions between the states;
- and
- based on the one or more transitions, updating the model.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor in an access point optimizer, cause the access point optimizer to perform steps comprising:
- obtaining data from wireless access points in a wireless network;
- using the data in a model of the wireless network to identify allowable transitions between states, the states being defined by the model;
- adjusting one or more parameters for one or more of the wireless access points to initiate one or more transitions between the states;
- and
- based on the one or more transitions, updating the model.
