WIRELESS CHANNEL SWITCHING USING CO-LOCATED RADIOS

摘要

A channel management system in a wireless network includes a master radio and a surrogate radio. The master radio performs data communication with one or more clients on a first channel in the wireless network, and the surrogate radio simultaneously scans other channels in the wireless network. A channel manager determines if a channel switch is needed, and the data communication is switched to a second channel based on the scanning of the other channels.
