Abstract
[Problem] To enable a more appropriate BSS transition threshold to be set in a wireless LAN system. [Solution] A wireless communication device functioning as an access point of a wireless LAN includes: a control unit that dynamically sets a threshold used when a station belonging to a BSS of its own device attempts to transit to another BSS belonging to the same ESS as the BSS based on information included in a wireless signal from an external device.
Claims20
A wireless communication device functioning as an access point of a wireless LAN, comprising:
- a control unit that dynamically sets a threshold used when a station belonging to a BSS of its own device transits to another BSS belonging to the same ESS as the BSS based on information included in a wireless signal from an external device.
A wireless communication method realizing an access point function of a wireless LAN, comprising:
- dynamically setting a threshold used when a station belonging to a BSS of its own device attempts to transit to another BSS belonging to the same ESS as the BSS based on information included in a wireless signal from an external device.
A wireless communication device functioning as a wireless LAN station, comprising:
- a control unit that controls a transition to another BSS belonging to the same ESS as a BSS to which the ESS belongs, using a threshold that is dynamically set based on information included in a wireless signal from an external device and reception information on a wireless signal from an access point.
A wireless communication method realizing a station function of a wireless LAN station, comprising:
- controlling a transition to another BSS belonging to the same ESS as a BSS to which an ESS belongs, using a threshold that is dynamically set based on information included in a wireless signal from an external device and reception information on a wireless signal from an access point.
