Shrnutí:In this paper, we study the novel problem of optimizing AP association by maximizing the network throughput, subject to the degree bound of AP. The formulated problem is a combinatorial optimization. We resort to the Markov Chain approximation technique to design a distributed algorithm. We first approximate our optimal objective via Log-Sum-Exp function. Thereafter, we construct a special class of Markov Chain with steady-state distribution specify to our problem to yield a distributed solution. Furthermore, we extend the static problem setting to a dynamic environment where the users can randomly leave or join the system. Our proposed algorithm has provable performance, achieving an approximation gap of 1 η log | F | . It is simple and can be implemented in a distributed manner. Our extensive simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can converge very fast, and achieve a close-to-optimal performance with a guaranteed loss bound.
