First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for supporting coexistence between a first radio module and a second radio module, comprising:
- the second radio module configured to;
select a channel allocated to the first radio module for operation of the second radio module;
request the first radio module for reservation of the channel for the operation of the second radio module; and
the first radio module configured to;
allocate the channel for operation of the second radio module by the first radio module in response to the request; and
wherein the second radio module is further configured to relinquish the channel after completing the operation of the second radio module in the channel.

Abstract
For a system providing coexistence between a WPAN coordinator and WLAN Access Point (AP), the WPAN coordinator requests WLAN AP for WPAN operation in a selected WLAN channel. The WLAN AP responds with the allocated time limit for which the WPAN operation can be performed. After expiration of the allocated time limit, the WPAN coordinator relinquishes the channel to the WLAN AP. A method addresses the operation of the WPAN system in 2.4 GHz ISM band when a non-overlapping WPAN channel selection is infeasible.
