Original Abstract Submitted
Scan mode is configured in an access point to monitor WLAN conditions. A channel list is progressively scanned using full capabilities available from MIMO transceivers. During a hop period, each MIMO transceiver is configured to a first set of channels from the channel list within an RF band. During a dwell period, an RF analysis is performed for the set of channels to identify conditions on the WLAN.
