The method used by wireless access points to allocate available bandwidth among connected devices is called _________.

Spectrum sharing is the method used by wireless access points to allocate available bandwidth among connected devices. This technique ensures efficient use of the available frequency spectrum by dynamically assigning frequencies to different devices based on their needs and the current network conditions. Channel allocation refers to the process of assigning specific frequency channels to devices for communication, which is related but not as dynamic as spectrum sharing. Frequency hopping is a technique where a device switches frequencies during transmission to avoid interference, but it's not the same as overall bandwidth allocation. Beamforming is a technology that focuses wireless signals towards specific devices, improving signal strength and quality but is not directly related to bandwidth allocation.
