ABSTRACT:
An adjacency matrix is incorporated into a local area network in order to provide smoother and faster transitions between mobile devices and access points of adjacent or overlapping microcells. The adjacency matrix can be based on fuzzy logic and updated periodically. Factors used to create the matrix can include the ability to establish a communication link, signal strength measurements, roam times, time of day, day of week and other factors germaine to the local area network topology and patterns of its usage. The mobile device thus effects the transition by attempting to communicate on the frequencies associated with hopping schemes of the access points which are most likely adjacent to the previous access point. As a result, the average transition time is greatly reduced.
