Systems and methods of scanning for wireless networks can use a wireless integrated package including a first radio and a second radio. The method includes providing a first probe request in a first time slot on a first channel using the first radio, and receiving a first probe response in a second time slot on the first channel using the second radio. The second time slot is at least partially contemporaneous with the first time slot. Fast parallel active scanning can be achieved.

A method and apparatus for a collision-free carrier sense multiple access (CSMA) are provided. The method of a node associated with a beacon enabled carrier sense multiple access (CSMA)-based wireless communication network through an access point (AP) includes receiving a beacon from the AP, the beacon comprising a back-off prime number and a beacon random number, and generating a back-off interval based on the beacon random number, the back-off prime number, a mapped identification (ID) of the node, and a current time slot of a frame of the beacon. The method and apparatus provide a collision-free CSMA scheme for a beacon enabled CSMA-based wireless communication network. In the collision-free CSMA scheme, uniformly distributed back-off intervals may be generated in a distributed fashion at each node for a CSMA-based wireless communication network. The back-off intervals may be correlated among the nodes even though the nodes do not communicate with each other.
