Abstract
A controller of a wireless access node is operative to estimate an adjacent one of a plurality of wireless channels while the access node is communicating over a present one of the plurality of wireless channels, comprising the controller, determining a difference between a measured signal quality of a signal communicated over the present wireless channel and a measured signal quality of a signal communicated over the adjacent channel, estimate a difference between a packet success rate of the present channel and a packet success rate of the adjacent channel based on the determined difference, and estimating a packet success rate of the adjacent channel based on a packet success rate of the present channel and the estimated difference between the packet success rate of the present channel and the packet success rate of the adjacent channel.
