1. :
- A system for communicating using a first signal operating in a first mode and a second signal operating in a second mode, the system comprising;
a memory;
a processor coupled to the memory; and
program code executable on the processor, the program code operable for;
receiving the first signal in the first mode from a user equipment (UE);
determining that the UE requests operation in the second mode; and
determining whether an insufficient guard band exists.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide for determining whether an insufficient guard band exists in a spectrum carrying potentially interfering signals and allocating a temporary guard band to spectrally separate the two signals, thereby reducing or preventing inter-signal interference.
