Abstract
A signal strength measurement method includes: obtaining, by a first access point (AP), a basic service set identifier (BSSID) of a second AP and a first operating channel, where the first operating channel is an operating channel of the second AP, and a station (STA) is associated with the BSSID of the second AP through the operating channel; and sending, by the first AP, a measurement frame to the STA through the operating channel, where a BSSID value of the measurement frame is the BSSID, the measurement frame indicates the STA to send a measurement response frame of which BS SID value is the BSSID, and the measurement response frame carries a signal strength of the measurement frame measured by the STA.
