  • Patent number: 10716043
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an access point handover method and device. The method includes: determining a first access point (AP) set detected by a source AP where a station is located, where the first AP set includes at least one AP; selecting, from the first AP set and according to the first AP set and a pre-stored AP set, a target AP to which the station is to be handed over; and transmitting a handover message to the station. The handover message is used for instructing the station to be handed over from the source AP to the target AP.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9521583
    Abstract: Disclosed are a method and device for implementing load balancing, when a first Access Point (AP) is to transmit data of a Station (STA) accessing the first AP, the first AP determines other APs for load sharing and transmits data desired to be offloaded to said other APs. Technical solutions for implementing load balancing according to the present disclosure can offload data of an STA to one or more APs and transmit the data to the Internet by virtue of other APs of a same ESS when conditions of a wireless network where a wireless AP of a MiFi or Eufi type is located is relatively poor or a load of the wireless AP is relatively heavy. Therefore, when too many STAs access the wireless AP, cases will not arise that the load of the wireless AP is too heavy or a 3G/4G network where the wireless AP is located experiences deterioration of its conditions or even an decrease in its performance.
