Abstract

A method for organizing an architecture of access points in a distributed wireless network includes measuring interference between the access points, assigning radiofrequency channels to the access points based on the measured interference and creating distributed antenna groups of multiple access points operating on a same radio frequency channel. A distributed wireless network includes a plurality of access points and a central controller connected to the access points via a common backbone, the central controller being configured to assign radio frequency channels to the access points according to the method.
