Abstract

Techniques and apparatus for managing congestion in a wireless network are provided. One technique includes receiving one or more buffer status reports (BSRs) from one or more client stations. Each BSR indicates an amount of traffic in a transmit queue of the client station. An allocation of resource units (RUs) for the one or more client stations is determined, based on at least a type of traffic in each transmit queue of the one or more client stations, upon a determination that there is congestion on an uplink wireless channel shared by the one or more client stations. A frame that includes an indication of the allocation of RUs for the one or more client stations is generated. The frame is transmitted to the one or more client stations.
