Abstract
This paper focuses on analysing the variation in IEEE802.11k channel load
measurements for neighbouring WLAN systems. The channel load functionality was
implemented in the QualNet simulation tool, and several scenarios were configured
for testing. The effects of different numbers of active systems with different traffic patterns were examined. The results obtained indicate significant variation in channel load values calculated by different stations experiencing different levels of
interference. This variation leads us to question the usefulness of a single channel load measurement; hence considerable care must be taken when using and interpreting
such measurements.
