Multi-carrier throughput enhancement by opportunistic packet scheduling with SPS concurrency

An apparatus for managing coexistence of a satellite positioning system (“SPS”) receiver with one or more transceivers, comprising:

• means for transmitting a first packet using a first transceiver at a first frequency band during a first time period in accordance with a first Radio Access Technology (“RAT”);
• and
• means for transmitting, subsequent to transmission of the first packet, a second packet at a second frequency band in accordance with a second RAT during the first time period in response to determining transmission of the second packet at the first frequency band during the first time period in accordance with the first RAT would violate one or more coexistence rules, wherein at least one coexistence rule from the one or more coexistences rules corresponds to an impact on the SPS receiver by operation of at least the first RAT on the first transceiver, wherein the first RAT and the second RAT correspond to a common type of RAT, wherein the first frequency band is different from the second frequency band.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising processor-executable instructions configured to cause a processor to:

• transmit a first packet using a first transceiver at a first frequency band during a first time period in accordance with a first Radio Access Technology (“RAT”);
• and
• transmit, subsequent to transmission of the first packet, a second packet at a second frequency band in accordance with a second RAT during the first time period in response to determining transmission of the second packet at the first frequency band during the first time period in accordance with the first RAT would violate one or more coexistence rules, wherein at least one coexistence rule from the one or more coexistences rules corresponds to an impact on a satellite positioning system (“SPS”) receiver by operation of at least the first RAT on the first transceiver, wherein the first RAT and the second RAT correspond to a common type of RAT, wherein the first frequency band is different from the second frequency band.
