Abstract

Responsive to receiving uplink traffic from a specific edge client on the edge client table, in-service monitoring for frame retries and collisions associated with the specific edge client is performed. Responsive to detecting that a rate of frame retries and collisions exceed a threshold, a BSS color change announcement frame is transmitted to the specific edge client comprising a second color. The BSS color change announcement directs the specific edge client to contend for medium access based on preambles observed from a specific overlapping BSS associated with the second BSS color rather than its home BSS. The default color can be restored after the uplink.
