Abstract

Method and apparatus for controlling CCA threshold of a wireless communication channel is provided. The method includes: obtaining a noisy level of the channel based on the number of first data received by a first terminal in a first period, the first terminal being a STA or AP in a wireless network, and the first data include aggregation frames or non-aggregation frames; and adjusting the CCA threshold the first terminal uses in data transmission in a second period based on the noisy level. The first terminal may adaptively detect the noisy level of the channel, and the CCA threshold may be selected reasonably based on the noisy level, which enables the first terminal to obtain an opportunity of accessing the channel in time when it needs to send data, enhance the first terminal's competition ability of occupying channels, and improve a throughput rate.
