Fast and reliable channel classification algorithms in Bluetooth networks to detect and avoid 2.4 GHz interferers

A system for frequency selection in a wireless communication system, the system comprising:

• at least one processor to be utilized in a wireless device, said at least one processor enables:
• receiving at least one signal at a current frequency;
• processing at least one data packet received via said received at least one signal to determine a presence of bit errors;
• classifying said current frequency based on at least said processing of said at least one data packet and at least one signal strength measurement of said received at least one signal;
• and
• selecting said current frequency based on said classification.

A method for frequency selection in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

• in a wireless device:
• performing at least one signal strength measurement on a corresponding at least one signal received at a current frequency;
• classifying said current frequency based on at least said at least one signal strength measurement and a presence of bit errors in at least one data packet received via said received at least one signal;
• and
• selecting said current frequency based on said classification.
