Access point, wireless device and methods for obtaining information about transmission patterns of interfering radio systems
First Claim
1. A method performed by an Access Point (AP) operable in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) for communicating with a wireless device, the WLAN employing contention based access for radio resources, the method comprising:
- obtaining information about a transmission pattern of an interfering radio system;
determining a deviation of packet length for transmissions of the interfering radio system; and
,in response to determining that the deviation is less than a deviation threshold, indicating, to the wireless device, the deviation of packet length and the information about the transmission pattern of the interfering radio system.

Abstract
An AP, a wireless device as well as a method performed by the AP and a method performed by the wireless device for communication between the AP and the wireless device are provided. The AP and wireless device are operable in a WLAN employing contention based access for radio resources. The method performed by the AP comprises obtaining (110) information about transmission pattern(s) of interfering radio system(s), and determining (130) a deviation of packet length for transmission(s) of the interfering radio systems(s). The method further comprises indicating (140), to the wireless device the deviation of packet length and the information about transmission pattern(s) of interfering radio system(s) when the deviation is less than a deviation threshold.
