Abstract
There is provided a node for operating in a wireless network, including: coarse-granularity scanning circuitry that performs a coarse-granularity scanning process to detect one or more donor nodes of the wireless network according to a first metric. Connection circuitry forms a connection to a selected donor node in the one or more donor nodes. The connection is broken as a consequence of the coarse-granularity scanning process being performed. Fine granularity scanning circuitry performs a fine granularity scanning process to determine a configuration in which a quality of the connection is improved according to a second metric. The connection is maintained during the fine granularity scanning process.
