Abstract
A managing wireless communication device assigns channels of a channel set to associated wireless communication devices. The associated wireless communication devices monitor the assigned channels for in-band signals including radar signals and report detections to the managing wireless communication device. The managing wireless communication device resets a timer associated with a channel when a report is received from one of the associated wireless communication devices. The timer may indicate how long the associated channel has been radar free.
