A mobile station is configured to scan cells in a wireless network. The mobile station includes at least one antenna configured to transmit and receive wireless signals. The mobile station also includes a processor coupled to the at least one antenna, the processor configured to scan for one or more neighboring base station cells in a same frequency band as a serving base station cell using one or more receive beams. The one or more receive beams used for scanning are different than receive beams used for data communication with the serving base station cell.
