1. A method, comprising:
- at a receiver, measuring first Received Signal Strength Indications (RSSIs) in respective first communication channels, which are located in a given frequency band and which each have a first channel bandwidth;
computing, based on the first RSSIs, second RSSIs for respective second communication channels, which are located in the given frequency band and which each have a second channel bandwidth that is larger than the first channel bandwidth; and
selecting, using the first and second RSSIs, at least one of the first and second communication channels over which to receive signals at the receiver.

Abstract
A method used in a receiver includes measuring first Received Signal Strength Indications (RSSIs) in respective first communication channels, which are located in a given frequency band and which each have a first channel bandwidth. Based on the first RSSIs, second RSSIs are computed for respective second communication channels, which are located in the given frequency band and which each have a second channel bandwidth that is larger than the first channel bandwidth. At least one of the first and second communication channels over which to receive signals at the receiver are selected using the first and second RSSIs.

10. A receiver, comprising:
-
reception circuitry, which is configured to receive first communication channels that are located in a given frequency band, each of the first communication channels having a first channel bandwidth, and to receive second communication channels that are located in the given frequency band, each of the second communication channels having a second channel bandwidth that is larger than the first channel bandwidth; and processing circuitry, which is configured to measure first Received Signal Strength Indications (RSSIs) in the respective first communication channels, to compute, based on the first RSSIs, second RSSIs for the respective second communication channels, and to select, using the first and second RSSIs, at least one of the first and second communication channels over which to receive signals at the receiver. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
