Abstract
In one embodiment, a technique for load balancing of throughput for multi-PHY networks using decision trees is provided. A first device of a mesh communication network may collect at least one transmission metric indicative of a primary link and a secondary link between the first device and a second device of the mesh communication network. The first device may provide the at least one transmission metric as input to one or more decision trees comprising one or more attributes that are each indicative of a threshold for a corresponding transmission metric. The first device may obtain an output from the decision tree comprising a selection of either the primary link or the secondary link. The first device may send, based on the output from the decision tree, one or more packets to the second device using the selected link.
