Abstract
Methods, devices, and processor readable media for enabling a device operating within a wireless network to select an OBSS PD level that allows transmission of physical (PHY) layer protocol data units (PPDU) in minimum time and thereby enhancing the throughput of the network. An optimal OBSS PD level may be identified as the level that minimizes a linear combination of an estimated average contention time and an estimated average transmission time. The estimated contention time and estimated transmission time may be calculated based on data samples recorded at the given OBSS PD level. If insufficient data samples have been collected at the given OBSS PD level, then data samples from other OBSS PD levels may be used to estimate the average.
