Age of Information (AoI), measures the time elapsed since the last received\ninformation packet was generated at the source. We consider the problem of AoI\nminimization for single-hop flows in a wireless network, under pairwise\ninterference constraints and time varying channel. We consider simple, yet\nbroad, class of distributed scheduling policies, in which a transmission is\nattempted over each link with a certain attempt probability. We obtain an\ninteresting relation between the optimal attempt probability and the optimal\nAoI of the link, and its neighboring links. We then show that the optimal\nattempt probabilities can be computed by solving a convex optimization problem,\nwhich can be done distributively.\n
