Methods and systems for improved utilization of a wireless medium
Systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication are provided. In an embodiment, a method of determining communication parameters for wireless communication includes receiving, at an access point, a probe request comprising a transmission power indication. The method further includes determining a received transmission power. The method further includes estimating a path-loss based on the transmission power indication and received transmission power. The method further includes transmitting a first probe response using a first set of communication parameters defining a first rate. The method further includes transmitting a second probe response using a second set of communication parameters defining a second rate when the access point does not receive an acknowledgement to the first probe response within a timeout period, the second rate being lower than the first rate.
