Distributed wireless local area network scan for low latency applications

This disclosure provides methods, components, devices and systems for a distributed wireless local area network (WLAN) scan for low latency applications. Some aspects more specifically relate to a first wireless communication device, such as a station, splitting a set of channels to scan into different subsets for scanning by one or more connected wireless communication devices in proximity to the wireless communication device. The first wireless communication device may indicate one or more of the subsets of channels to the connected wireless communication device in proximity to the first wireless communication device for scanning, and the first wireless communication device may receive results of the scanning of the subset of channels from the connected wireless communication device.
