Abstract

Disclosed is a method that includes receiving absolute wireless access point coordinates from wireless access points that define respective wireless access point positions of the wireless access points. The method includes orienting the directional antenna to orientations based on the absolute wireless access point coordinates. The method includes transmitting test signals to the respective wireless access points while the directional antenna is positioned at the orientations to generate the database entries associated with the respective wireless access point positions. The method includes orienting the directional antenna according to a first one of the database entries having a greatest likelihood to establish a first communications path between a first one of the wireless access points and the wireless endpoint. The method includes transmitting a data signal to the first one of the wireless access points with a minimum transmission power based on the database entries.
