Determining transmission parameters for transmitting beacon frames

A computing device, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory having instructions stored thereon, which when executed by the one or more processors, cause the computing device to perform operations including:
• determining, by an access point, that a first client device is associated with a first wireless network
• and that a second client device is associated with a second wireless network, wherein the first client device is different than the second client device;
• receiving first information associated with the first client device, and second information is associated with the second client device;
• determining at least one of a first transmission parameter using the first information and a second transmission parameter using the second information, wherein the respective first and second transmission parameter includes a respective first and second transmission rate wherein the respective first and second transmission rate are each selected based on a respective data transmission error rate being less than a threshold error rate;
• updating the respective first and second transmission parameters using a parameter profile when zero client devices are connected to the respective first and second wireless network;
• modifying the respective first and second transmission parameter using updated first and second client device information;
• modifying at least one of a transmission frequency, a transmission rate, and a transmit power for broadcasting a plurality of management frames according to the modified first and second transmission parameter;
• and
• broadcasting, by the access point, the plurality of management frames in a respective first and second wireless network, wherein each management frame announces presence of the first wireless network or second wireless network, or indicates a buffer capacity of the access point;
• wherein the transmit power, the transmission frequency, and the transmission rate are determined according to the respective first and second transmission parameter depending on the respective first and second wireless network that the plurality of management frames are transmitted in.

A computer-program product tangibly embodied in a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, including instructions to cause a data processing apparatus to:

• determine, by an access point, that a first client device is associated with a first wireless network;
• determine, by the access point, that a second client device is associated with a second wireless network, wherein the first client device is different than the second client device;
• receive first client device information associated with the first client device, and second client device information associated with the second client device;
• determine at least one of a first transmission parameter using the first client device information and a second transmission parameter using the second client device information, wherein each of the first and second transmission parameters include a respective first and second transmission rate, and wherein the first transmission rate and the second transmission rate are each selected based on a respective data transmission error rate being less than a threshold error rate;
• and
• broadcast, by the access point, a plurality of management frames in at least one of the first wireless network and the second wireless network, wherein each management frame announces presence of the first wireless network or second wireless network, or indicates a buffer capacity of the access point, and
• wherein a transmission frequency, a transmission rate, and a transmit power for broadcasting the plurality of management frames are determined according to the first transmission parameter or the second transmission parameter depending on whether the plurality of management frames are transmitted in the first wireless network or the second wireless network.
