Abstract

According to one embodiment, a wireless device includes a receiver configured to receive a first beacon signal via a first channel; and control circuitry. The control circuitry is configured to: analyze the first beacon signal to obtain channel information for specifying a second channel, change an operation channel of the receiver from the first channel to the second channel, and change, in a case of not receiving a second beacon signal via the second channel during a predetermined period of time, the operation channel of the receiver from the second channel to the first channel. The receiver is further configured to receive a third beacon signal via the first channel after the operation channel is changed from the second channel to the first channel.
