Patent ID: 8537803

Claim:
A wireless device, comprising: a first wireless transceiver and a second wireless transceiver, the first transceiver configured for operation with a first wireless network, and the second transceiver configured for operation with a second wireless network, the first wireless network and the second wireless network employing adjacent and/or overlapping portions of the wireless spectrum, wherein the first wireless network is incompatible with the second wireless network; and logic that determines which of the first and second transceivers is enabled to transmit at a given time, wherein the logic is configured to: a.) during a time period as triggered by and based on receiving a first notification signal of a selected type over the first wireless network from a different wireless device also having a first wireless transceiver configured for operation with the first wireless network and a second wireless transceiver configured for operation with the second wireless network, the first notification signal indicating a time period during which the second transceiver of the different wireless device will perform a first wireless transaction; b.) wherein the wireless device is configured to perform a second wireless transaction via the second wireless network without transmitting a second notification signal of the selected type over the first wireless network, and c.) wherein the logic causes the second wireless transaction to occur during the time period during which the second transceiver of the other device will perform the first wireless transaction, as determined by the first wireless device from the first notification signal of the selected type.
