Abstract
The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to share channel maps between devices for channel selection for connections. A device may perform channel scanning operations for determining channel conditions and generating channel maps, and may provide the channel maps to other devices. The other devices can reduce channel scanning operations based on receiving the channel maps from the device.
