Abstract
Embodiments of this disclosure provide a node diagnosis apparatus and system. The node diagnosis apparatus includes: a first receiving unit configured to receive notifications related to busyness/idleness of channels reported by other nodes; a first transmitting unit configured to, when the first receiving unit receives a first notification related to busyness/idleness of channels reported by a first node and a second notification related to busyness/idleness of channels reported by a second node and the first node and the second node are in different basic service sets, transmit a control signal to the first node and the second node; a second receiving unit configured to receive one or more first parameters reported by the first node and one or more second parameters reported by the second node; and a first determining unit configured to determine that the first node and the second node are exposed nodes when the one or more first parameters and the one or more second parameters satisfy a predetermined condition. With the embodiments of this disclosure, whether a node is an exposed node may be well identified, with complexity of identification being low, and signaling being simple…
