ASYNCHRONOUS INTERFACE FOR MULTI-RADIO COEXISTENCE MANAGER
First Claim
1. A method used in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- identifying respective managed endpoints associated with respective potentially conflicting radio technologies and a multi-radio coexistence platform associated with the respective managed endpoints; and
maintaining a bus system that communicatively connects the respective managed endpoints to the multi-radio coexistence platform, wherein the bus system comprises one or more buses operating in an asynchronous manner.

Abstract
Systems and methodologies are described herein that facilitate an asynchronous bus architecture for multi-radio coexistence associated with a wireless device. As described herein, a system of buses operating in an asynchronous manner, combined with optional on-chip and/or other supplemental buses, can be utilized to couple respective radios and/or other related endpoints to a coexistence management platform, thereby facilitating management of coexistence between multiple radios in a unified and scalable manner. As further described herein, communication between a coexistence manager and its respective managed endpoints can be facilitated through the use of a single bus or multiple buses that can be switched and/or otherwise operate in a concurrent manner to facilitate expedited conveyance of radio event notifications and their corresponding responses.
