Abstract:
The claimed subject matter includes techniques for migrating wireless channels. An example method includes initiating, via a first media access controller on an integrated circuit chip, a first connection on a first wireless channel. The example method also includes performing, via a second media access controller on the integrated circuit chip, a scan on additional wireless channels using a second media access controller. The example method also includes detecting, via the second media access controller, an available wireless channel from the additional wireless channels. The method further includes migrating, via the first media access controller, the first connection from the first wireless channel to the available wireless channel. The method further includes combining the second access media controller with the first media access controller to provide increased throughput or signal quality on the available wireless channel.
