Abstract:
1. A method, comprising: receiving, by a coexistence manager, information indicating that a candidate wireless network served by another coexistence manager may interfere with a wireless network served by the coexistence manager; determining, by the coexistence manager, at least one location related to the wireless network served by the coexistence manager; transmitting, by the coexistence manager, a request message to the other coexistence manager, indicating the at least the one location and requesting an estimate of a transmission signal level at the at least one location caused by the candidate wireless network; receiving, by the coexistence manager, from the other coexistence manager, a response message including information indicating an estimated transmission signal level at the at least one location caused by the candidate wireless network; and determining, by the coexistence manager, whether the candidate wireless network interferes with the wireless network served by the coexistence manager based on the received estimated transmission signal level at the at least one location.
