In embodiments of the present disclosure, there is provided an approach for performing channel scan by utilizing a target wake time (TWT) mechanism. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a compound AP transmits, to an uplink AP, a request to negotiate a schedule for a TWT session. The compound AP receives a response to the request from the uplink AP. The response comprises timing information of the TWT session. Then, the compound AP performs channel scan during a sleep period determined from the timing information. Data transmission between the compound AP and the uplink AP is disabled during the sleep period. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an effective way for performing the channel scan, thereby ensuring data delivery and enhancing connection robustness between the compound AP and the uplink AP.
