Abstract
Embodiments include methods for channel reconfiguration by a network node in a communications network. Such methods include obtaining received signal strength indicator (RSSI) measurements from wireless devices served by the network node at a current channel in a current frequency interval within a current frequency band. the RSSI measurements trigger perform channel reconfiguration to select a new channel for serving the wireless device. the new channel is the current frequency interval in the current frequency band, a new frequency interval in the current frequency band, or a new frequency interval in a new frequency band. The new channel is selected based on RSSI measurements are performed by the network node on one or more of the following: the current channel in the current frequency interval, a different channel in the current frequency interval, or a different channel in the new frequency interval.
