Abstract:
A geolocation utilization manager for managing wireless local area networks (WLAN) each supporting wireless communications between an associated access point node and associated station nodes on a corresponding one of a plurality of communication channels. The geolocation utilization manager for aggregating channel utilization information from the WLANs, and consolidating channel usage between neighboring underutilized ones of the WLANs, thereby maximizing utilization of a shared channel between neighboring underutilized ones of the WLANs. Whereby underutilized neighboring WLANs otherwise utilizing unique channels instead share a single channel, thereby freeing up other communication channels across an available WiFi, IEEE 802.11 or other such spectrum.
