ABSTRACT:
A method of operation in a communications node is disclosed. The method of operation includes the communications node scanning a plurality of channels simultaneously during a period of time, with the communications node selecting for signal processing a first signal, in a first channel in the plurality of channels, in a first sub-period of time in the period of time. The method of operation includes the communications node selecting for signal processing a second signal, in a second channel in the plurality of channels, in a second sub-period of time in the period of time. Embodiments of the present invention include but are not limited to communications nodes and devices, subsystems, and systems equipped to operate in the above described manner.
