1. In a wireless communication system, a method for communicating via a first radio channel, the method comprising:
- providing a wired communication link between a first transceiver system and a second transceiver system, the first transceiver system and the second transceiver system being in a same electronic device;
providing channel information indicative of a second radio channel from the second transceiver system to the first transceiver system via the wired communication link; and
communicating via the first radio channel with the first transceiver system if the channel information is indicative of a lack of radio interference between the first radio channel and the second radio channel.

13. An electronic device comprising:
-
a wired communication link; a first transceiver system, the first transceiver system being operable to provide channel information indicative of a first radio channel; and a second transceiver system in communication with the first transceiver system via the wired communication link, the second transceiver system being responsive to the channel information to communicate via a second radio channel if the channel information is indicative of a lack of radio interference between the first radio channel and the second radio channel. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)

22. In an electronic device including a first transceiver system and a second transceiver system, a processor operates in accordance with a computer program embodied on a computer-readable medium for a computer program for communicating via a first radio channel, the computer program comprising:
-
a first set of operating instructions that directs the processor to provide channel information indicative of a second radio channel from the second transceiver system to the first transceiver system via a wired communication link operatively coupled to the first and second transceiver systems; and a second set of operating instructions that directs the processor to communicate via the first radio channel with the first transceiver system if the channel information is indicative of a lack of radio interference between the first radio channel and the second radio channel. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)
