Abstract
Roaming optimization, and particularly transmitting directional neighbor reports to optimize roaming may be provided. For roaming optimization, it is first determined that a client is going to roam to a new Access Point (AP). In response to determining the client is going to roam to a new AP, an estimated path of the client is determined. One or more candidate APs are determined based at least in part on the estimated path, and probabilities of roaming to the one or more candidate APs is determined based at least in part on the estimated path. A directional neighbor report including a list of the one or more candidate APs and the probabilities is generated and transmitted to the client.
