System and method for dynamic pairing of a host and out-of-band radio using radio and embedded controller contextual telemetry

An information handling system to wirelessly transmit and receive data comprising:

• a processor and a memory in a base chassis;
• a power management unit;
• a wireless interface adapter for transceiving wireless communications via radiofrequency (RF) waves having a first wireless protocol subsystem, a second wireless protocol subsystem, and a third wireless protocol subsystem;
• a plurality of antennas operatively coupled to the wireless interface adapter, including:
• at least a first shareable antenna operatively coupled to a radio frequency (RF) switch to switch the first shareable antenna between the first wireless protocol subsystem and the third wireless protocol subsystem;
• and
• a second shareable antenna operatively coupled to the RF switch to switch the second shareable antenna between the second wireless protocol subsystem and the third wireless protocol subsystem;
• an antenna controller operatively coupled to the RF switch configured to:
• receive radio telemetry data indicating radio connection status information of the first wireless protocol subsystem, the second wireless protocol subsystem, and the third wireless protocol subsystem;
• determine assignment of one of the first shareable antenna and second shareable antenna to the third wireless protocol subsystem based on the operational status of the first wireless protocol subsystem, the second wireless protocol subsystem, and the third wireless protocol subsystem;
• and
• send commands to switch the RF switch to operatively couple the first shareable antenna and second shareable antenna to the third wireless protocol subsystem to harvest out-of-band (OOB) network channel telemetry data.

An information handling system to wirelessly transmit and receive data comprising:

• a processor, a memory and a power management unit (PMU) formed in a base chassis;
• a display device in a display chassis hinged to the base chassis;
• a wireless interface adapter for transceiving wireless communications via radiofrequency (RF) waves having a Wi-Fi/Bluetooth wireless protocol subsystem, a cellular wireless protocol subsystem, and an out-of-band (OOB) Wi-Fi wireless protocol subsystem operatively controlled by an embedded controller;
• a plurality of antennas operatively coupled to the wireless interface adapter, including:
• at least a first antenna operatively coupled to the Wi-Fi protocol subsystem and a second shareable antenna operatively coupled to an RF switch to dynamically switch the second shareable antenna between one of the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth wireless protocol subsystem and the OOB Wi-Fi wireless protocol subsystem;
• at least a fourth antenna, a fifth antenna, and a sixth antenna operatively coupled to the cellular wireless protocol subsystem and a third shareable antenna coupled to the RF switch to dynamically switch the third shareable antenna between one of the cellular wireless protocol subsystem and the OOB Wi-Fi wireless protocol subsystem;
• an antenna controller operatively coupled to the RF switch configured to:
• receive radio telemetry data indicating radio connection status information of the OOB Wi-Fi wireless protocol subsystem, the cellular wireless protocol subsystem, and the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth wireless protocol subsystem;
• determine assignment of one of the second shareable antenna and third shareable antenna to the OOB Wi-Fi wireless protocol subsystem based on the operational status of the OOB Wi-Fi wireless protocol subsystem, the cellular wireless protocol subsystem, and the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth wireless protocol subsystem upon detection of a provisioning event;
• and
• send commands to switch the RF switch to operatively couple the second shareable antenna and third shareable antenna to the OOB Wi-Fi wireless protocol subsystem to harvest OOB network channel telemetry data.
