Abstract
In environments such as buildings in which access points are densely deployed, those access points influence each other. To provide a frequency channel allocation scheme in such densely populated environments information gathered by the access points are collected. In such a situation, relying on a list of neighboring access points, background noise, communication medium business, the beacon messages received from access points as well as their associated RSSI, may lead to a frequency channel allocation scheme that may not significantly reduce the interference between access points. The invention introduces an activity-based distance computed between at least two access points which represents a time overlap in a use of the communication medium.
