AI-DFS (ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ENABLED DYNAMIC FREQUENCY SELECTION) FOR STEERING DOWNGRADED WIRELESS STATIONS ON 160 MHZ BANDWIDTH SUPPORTED WIRELESS DATA COMMUNICATION NETWORKS

Abstract:

A station with a 160 MHz channel connection at a first access point is downgraded by an access point in response to being displaced off of a channel status changing to NOP (non occupancy period). This can be caused by ambient radar signals. The downgrade is addressed by redistributing the 160 MHz stations to other access points with available 160 MHz channels. Stations are steered to a network-wide best available bandwidth channel across different access points.
