Methods and apparatus for network capacity enhancement for wireless device coexistence

A portable device, comprising:

• a first wireless module in communication with a first network operating under a first wireless protocol;
• a second wireless module in communication with a second network operating under a second wireless protocol;
• and
• a management module adapted to receive:
• first data related to a duty cycle of at least one of said first and second wireless protocol modules;
• and
• second data related to an operational profile of said first network;
• wherein said management module is adapted to dynamically adjust at least one operating parameter of said first or said second wireless protocol modules based at least in part on said first and second data;
• and
• wherein said management module operates at least one of said first and second wireless protocol modules so that it defaults to a power saving mode when not in use thereby reducing duty cycle of said at least one of said first and second wireless protocol modules, said reduced duty cycle mitigating said interference, but also adding at least some latency to at least one of data transmission or reception using said at least one of said first and second wireless protocol modules.

A portable computerized apparatus adapted for powering by a fixed power supply or a portable power supply, comprising:

• a first wireless module adapted for communication with one or more external devices using a first wireless protocol;
• a first management module in signal communication with said first wireless module;
• and
• a second wireless module adapted for communication with one or more external devices using a second wireless protocol, said second wireless protocol different than said first wireless protocol;
• wherein said first management module comprises a default value comprising a power saving mode that reduces a duty cycle of said second wireless module, said default value implemented when said portable computerized apparatus is powered by said fixed power supply and when portable computerized apparatus is powered by said portable power supply;
• and
• wherein said reduced duty cycle mitigates interference, but also adds at least some latency to at least one of data transmission or reception using said second wireless module.
