Abstract
An access point (AP) may determine that a basic service set (BSS) color of an overlapping BSS (OBSS) associated with a neighboring AP is a same color as a BSS color of the AP. A BSS color change announcement message may be generated having BSS color information and a color switching time. The BSS color information may indicate a BSS color for the AP and the color switching time may indicate a time until the AP switches to the BSS color.
