Abstract: TECHNIQUES FOR CONTROLLING TRANSMISSIONS IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORKS ARE DESCRIBED. IN ONE ASPECT, TRANSMISSION CONTROL FOR A MESH NETWORK (100) MAY BE ACHIEVED BY RANKING MESH POINTS (120, 130, 140) OR STATIONS IN THE MESH NETWORK (100). IN ONE DESIGN, THE RANK OF A FIRST STATION IN THE MESH NETWORK MAY BE DETERMINED. AT LEAST ONE STATION OF LOWER RANK THAN THE FIRST STATION IN THE MESH NETWORK MAY BE IDENTIFIED. AT LEAST ONE TRANSMISSION PARAMETER FOR THE AT LEAST ONE STATION OF LOWER RANK MAY BE SET BY THE FIRST STATION. IN ANOTHER ASPECT, STATIONS MAY BE ASSIGNED DIFFERENT TRANSMISSION PARAMETER VALUES TO ACHIEVE THE DATA REQUIREMENTS OF EACH STATION. AT LEAST ONE TRANSMISSION PARAMETER VALUE MAY BE SELECTED FOR EACH STATION BASED ON THE RANK, QoS REQUIREMENTS, AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC, AND/OR ACHIEVABLE DATA RATE FOR THAT STATION AND MAY BE SENT (E.G., VIA A PROBE RESPONSE MESSAGE) TO THE STATION.
