Method and system for using resources allocated to a wireless network in a coexisting wireless network

A method, comprising:

• scheduling, by a wireless device, a first communication via a first wireless network;
• identifying, by the wireless device, a wireless resource allocated to the first communication;
• identifying, by the wireless device, a portion of the wireless resource used by the first communication;
• scheduling, by the wireless device, based on the identified portion of the wireless resource, a second communication via a second wireless network using the wireless resource allocated to the first communication.

A coexistence scheduler, comprising:

• a first scheduler;
• and
• a second scheduler;
• wherein the first scheduler is configured to:
• determine whether a resource allocated to a first scheduled communication via a first of two coexisting wireless networks accessed by a wireless device is unused by the first scheduled communication;
• provide information identifying the resource allocated to and unused by the first scheduled communication to the second scheduler;
• and
• wherein the second scheduler is configured to schedule, based on the information provided by the first scheduler, communication via a second of the two coexisting wireless networks accessed by the wireless device using the resource allocated to the first scheduled communication.
