Abstract

Mechanisms for enabling distributed access control are disclosed. At least one communication channel is selected for wireless communication by a device by a selection procedure where interference impact of at least one communication channel on at least one interfered node is determined, an overall interference effect is formed, and a set of feasible communication channels is selected based on comparison of the overall interference effect to communication channel capacity. At least one communication channel can be selected from the selected set of feasible communication channels based on transmission collision information, a ratio of capacity of interfered transmissions and capacity of interference-free transmissions, usage history of the feasible communication channels, and fairness of communication channel selection. Information can be communicated to at least one device from a plurality of access nodes.
