Abstract
Multi-channel listening capable receiver capable of operating on one of K data channels and method of operating such a receiver. A local oscillator () is provided for tuning the receiver () to one of the channels within a channel switching time Ts, as well as a processing unit () arranged to detect a presence of a preamble on the tuned channel. The processing unit () is further arranged to switch over the local oscillator () to a next one of the data channels if no presence of a preamble is detected within a single preamble symbol duration Tp. The channel switching time is a fraction β of a single preamble symbol period Tp. The number of data channels K fulfills the condition K<floor (N−1−(K*β)) to be able to receive all relevant data packets on the K channels, after being triggered by reception of the preamble.
