Abstract
The functionality of multiple radio backhaul is extended to mobility applications. The multiple radio backhaul uses at least one radio for the uplink and at least one radio for the downlink, both operating in different, non-interfering channels. A mobile mesh node scans and/or samples multiple radio channels to determine the best parent mesh node to connect to. Techniques devised to scan/sample the external Radio Frequency (RF) environment without sacrificing the overall up time performance of the network are described.
