Abstract
A Quality of Service (QoS) based wireless coverage map may be provided. First, a station may be identified by an Access Point (AP) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). Next, a report request may be sent by the AP to the station in response to identifying the station. A report may then be received from the station in response to the report request. The report may comprise information. The information may comprise a location of the station and data indicating a strength of a signal from the AP at the station. A map may be created based on the received report. The map may indicate a hole in the coverage of the WLAN.
