EBSS? Maybe you mean ESS (Extended Service Set), which is a network
consisting of multiple Infrastructure/BSS networks connected through a
system such as a wired ethernet backbone.

IIRC, with ESS, access points can forward packets to other access points
(through the backbone) depending on which access point would be better
to send data to a particular client. ESS increases client mobility this
way (I only know about ESS because there's a IP telephony based PABX
manufacturer developing 802.11 based cordless VoIP phones for
businesses)..
