Abstract
Systems [100A/100B] and methods [700/800] for allocating wireless channel/s to wireless access point/s [102] are disclosed. More particularly, the embodiments of the present invention comprise steps of: determining at least one candidate wireless channel, providing an initial score to each of the at least one candidate wireless channel, determining a channel overlapping parameter and a signal strength factor, determining a channel score based on the initial score, the channel overlapping parameter, the signal strength factor and a reduction weight, applying a positive offset to update the channel score of each of the at least one candidate wireless channel, selecting the at least one wireless channel for the at least one wireless access point [102A] based on the updated channel score, and allocating the at least one wireless channel to the at least one wireless access point [102A].
