Abstract
The present disclosure describes an access point with an adjustable scan radio and a method of operating the access point. The access point operates a scan radio to determine first and second sets of metrics for packets detected by the scan radio with a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) greater than first and second RSSI thresholds, respectively. The access point also operates a service radio to determine a third set of metrics for packets transmitted by the service radio and determines a first weight and a second weight based on the third set of metrics. The access point further applies the first and second weights to the first and second sets of metrics to produce first and second sets of weighted metrics and adjusts the service radio based on the first and second sets of weighted metrics.
