  Ubiquitous densification of wireless networks has brought up the issue of
inter-and intra-cell interference. Interference significantly degrades network
throughput and leads to unfair channel resource usage, especially in Wi-Fi
networks, where even a low interfering signal from a hidden station may cause
collisions or block channel access as it is based on carrier sensing. In the
paper, we propose a joint power control and channel time scheduling algorithm
for such networks, which significantly increases overall network throughput
while maintaining fairness. The algorithm is based on branch-and-bound global
optimization technique and guarantees that the solution is optimal with
user-defined accuracy.
