Abstract:
Example methods and apparatus to generate recommendation(s) for access point association by a client device are disclosed. An example method includes calculating an effective uplink data rate for the client with respect to a first access point based on a) an uplink data rate and b) a percentage of uplink airtime available to the client. The example method includes calculating a first effective downlink data rate with respect to the first access point based on a) a downlink data rate for and b) a percentage of downlink airtime available to the client. The example method includes computing a first metric for the first access point based on the first effective uplink data rate, the first effective downlink data rate, and a noise floor scaling factor. The example method includes generating an access point recommendation by comparing the first metric and a second metric for a second access point.

Claim (Index 14):
The apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the processor is configured to weight at least one of the first effective uplink data rate or the second effective uplink data rate according to an uplink to downlink traffic ratio.
