- the STA performing scanning waits for a beacon frame while moving channels.
- the beacon frame is one of management frames in IEEE 802.11.
- the beacon frame is notified of the existence of a wireless network and is periodically transmitted to allow the STA performing scanning to find the wireless network and participate in the wireless network.

- the STA that performs the scanning receives the beacon frame, the STA stores the information on the BSS included in the beacon frame and records beacon frame information in each channel while moving to another channel.
- a beacon frame 1 415 transmitted by AP1 410 of BSS1 and a beacon frame transmitted by AP2 420 of BSS2 are performed by a scanning STA 400 performing passive channel scanning on a specific channel. If receiving 2 425 and not receiving beacon frame 3 435 transmitted by AP3 430 of BSS3, scanning STA 400 stores that two BSSs (BSS1, BSS2) were found in the measurement channel.
