Abstract

Methods, apparatus, and systems are disclosed for collaborative link adaptation between an access point and stations of a wireless network. In embodiments of the present disclosure, the problem of optimizing network links may be distributed from the access point to the stations, which may each determine whether they should locally solve the problem of optimizing their respective link to the access point or should return the optimization problem to the access point. The access point may optimize the links to stations that do not solve the optimization problem themselves. Embodiments may evaluate the transmission performance and computational costs of each station and of the network in determining where optimization should be done.
