Abstract

The invention provides a method and system for enhancing signal qualities within a Wi-Fi network using an adaptive-software defined network (A-SDN) and a cloud platform. The Wi-Fi network includes client devices connected to a Wi-Fi access point and a plurality of nearby Wi-Fi access points to the one or more client devices. The method and system collects radio frequency (RF) measurements pertaining to each client device, the connected Wi-Fi access point, and the plurality of nearby Wi-Fi access points, and an Artificial Intelligence (AI) model is utilized to derive interference measurements based on the RF measurements. The AI model then derives configurations related to Wi-Fi network parameters associated with the connected Wi-Fi access point based on the RF measurements and the interference measurements by solving a complex optimization problem. The Wi-Fi network parameters are then updated based on the derived configurations.
