Abstract
Methods and devices are described for wireless communications associated with a multidimensional algorithm for roaming. In one aspect, an access point (or like device) transmits a beacon signal. The access point receives, from a station in receipt of the beacon signal, a probe signal including at least one metric. The access point transmits a response signal based at least in part on the received probe signal, the response signal including information associated with the at least one metric.
