Embodiments of a multi-radio wireless communication device having a Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMax) radio module and a Bluetooth (BT) radio module and methods for communicating are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed. In some embodiments, a WiMax active signal is asserted by a coexist controller of the WiMax radio module during receipt of a downlink subframe, and the BT radio module aligns a BT slot boundary of either master-to-slave or slave-to-master slot based on timing information conveyed by the WiMax active signal. The WiMax active signal may be de-asserted by the coexist controller during transmission of an uplink subframe by the WiMax radio module.

US Classification:
370338, 370315, 4555501
Abstract:
Methods and arrangements for link rate adaptation in multi-radio co-existence platforms (MRPs) are contemplated. Embodiments include transformations, code, state machines or other logic to determine an overlap between receiving by a wireless device of the MRP and transmitting by other of the wireless devices of the MRP and to select a link rate of the wireless device of the MRP based upon the determining an overlap. The embodiments may also include communicating the determined link rate to a wireless device transmitting to the wireless device of the MRP. Embodiments may also include selecting a previously used link rate if the receiving overlaps the transmitting. Embodiments may also include basing the link rate upon an overlapping or non-overlapping Signal-to-Interference-Plus-Noise-Ratio depending on the relative amounts of overlapping and non-overlapping.

International Classification:
H04L 12/28
US Classification:
370254, 370328, 455446
Abstract:
In general, in one aspect, the disclosure describes a method that includes selecting an offset between start of communications of a first radio in a multi-radio platform (MRP) and start of communications of a second radio in the MRP. Synchronizing clocks of the first radio and the second radio to maintain the offset. Determining safe zones within the communications of the second radio based on configuration of the first radio and the second radio and the selected offset. The safe zones are locations that minimize conflicts between receiving operations of the first radio that are at fixed locations and transmitting operations of the second radio and transmitting operations of the first radio that are at fixed locations and receiving operations of the second radio.

International Classification:
H04B 7/005 H04Q 7/24
US Classification:
370278, 370338
Abstract:
In general, in one aspect, the disclosure describes an apparatus that includes a first radio to communicate with a first wireless network and a second radio to communicate with a second wireless network. The first wireless network transmits a map defining locations within an assigned spectrum data is to be communicated therebetween. An earliest possible location defined in map is such that the map can be parsed within the time it would take to get to the earliest possible location so that the radio can be turned off after receiving the map until the location defined in the map, and the second radio is active when the first radio is not.
A collocated radio coexistence method is disclosed. The method operates in the frequency domain to protect WiMAX downlink traffic from narrow band interference (e. g. harmonics) caused by other collocated radios, such as GSM 800 MHz, operating simultaneously with an 802. 16-capable (WiMAX) radio in a multiple radio coexistence platform (MRP).

International Classification:
H04M 1/00
US Classification:
4555531, 4555521
Abstract:
Transmission opportunity (TXOP) duration is adapted for a wireless local area network (WLAN) transceiver in a dual radio wireless device based on an end of free time indication associated with a wireless wide area network (WWAN) transceiver within the same device. In this manner, the occurrence of collisions between WLAN communication activity and WLAN communication activity within the dual radio device may be reduced or eliminated.

International Classification:
H04W 4/00
US Classification:
370229, 370252, 370329, 370341
Abstract:
A flexible start time (FST) scheduling algorithm operable at a base station is disclosed, to allocate resource in the time domain based on coexistence period bitmap (CBP) feedback gathered from multi-radio user terminals. The algorithm analyzes traffic load distribution in the wireless neighborhood and determines an optimum starting time of the CBP operation for the current user.
Systems And Methods For Scheduling Transmissions For Coexistence Of Differing Wireless Radio Protocols
Embodiments of systems and methods for Bluetooth and WiMAX coexistence are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed. In some embodiments systems and methods are described to determine a temporal reference associated a frame, and then align another wireless frame with that temporal reference. Once aligned, transmissions and receptions in one wireless frame may be arranged to not temporally overlap with transmissions or reception the other wireless frame.
