Patent ID: 11706683

Abstract:
A wireless roaming method and an apparatus, a storage medium and an access point device are disclosed. The wireless roaming method comprises: receiving, from an overlapping access point, first signal strength indication information that describes signal strength when a station transmits a data packet to the overlapping access point via a current channel, wherein the coverage of the overlapping access point overlaps with that of a current access point, the station accesses to the current access point, and the current access point operates on the current channel; measuring second signal strength information that describes signal strength when the station transmits a data packet to the current access point via the current channel; and sending the first signal strength indication information and the second signal strength indication information to the station, and/or generating a switching instruction based on the first signal strength indication information and the second signal strength indication information and sending at least the switching instruction to the station. The technical solution of the present disclosure can improve the efficiency of wireless roaming.
