Abstract
One example of a device includes a Bluetooth transceiver, a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) transceiver, and a controller. The WLAN transceiver is proximate the Bluetooth transceiver. The controller is communicatively coupled to the Bluetooth transceiver and the WLAN transceiver. The controller is configured to adjust a cell size of the WLAN transceiver or the Bluetooth transceiver to reduce interference between WLAN transceiver traffic and Bluetooth transceiver traffic.
Claims20
A device comprising:
- a Bluetooth transceiver;
- a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) transceiver;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- in response to a maximum WLAN transmit power to sustain Bluetooth traffic at a given Bluetooth metric being greater than a WLAN transmit power to sustain WLAN traffic at a highest WLAN rate for a given WLAN metric, enable WLAN traffic in parallel with Bluetooth traffic, and limit WLAN transmit power to the WLAN transmit power to sustain WLAN traffic at the highest rate for the WLAN metric;
- in response to the maximum WLAN transmit power to sustain Bluetooth traffic at the given Bluetooth metric being greater than a WLAN transmit power to sustain a first percentage of the highest WLAN rate, enable WLAN traffic in parallel with Bluetooth traffic, limit WLAN transmit power to the WLAN transmit power to sustain the first percentage of the highest WLAN rate, and limit the WLAN rate to the first percentage of the highest WLAN rate;
- and
- in response to the maximum WLAN transmit power to sustain Bluetooth traffic at the given Bluetooth metric being less than the WLAN transmit power to sustain WLAN traffic at the highest WLAN rate for the given WLAN metric and in response to the maximum WLAN transmit power to sustain Bluetooth traffic at the given Bluetooth metric being less than the WLAN transmit power to sustain the first percentage of the highest WLAN rate, enable WLAN reception in parallel with Bluetooth transmission and reception, and disable WLAN transmission in parallel with Bluetooth reception.
