How to identify the frequency of the access point (AP) when wifi scanning?

I am using esp32-c3, and my idf version is 5.4. I want to find all the ap with 5Ghz when scanning.

The ESP32-C3 is 2.4GHz only; afaik there is no way for it to receive 5GHz access point beacons.

Could you teach me how to check the beacons's info? There are some aps with ssid which contains "5G" in my scan result. I want to know if it is a fake 5Ghz ap.
