Patent ID: 8145264

Claim:
A wireless communication method comprising: receiving a communication message by a first wireless transceiver in a dual radio device, wherein the first wireless transceiver conforms to a first communication protocol that uses a plurality of frequency sub-channels in parallel from a set of frequency sub-channels, and wherein the communication message was transmitted using a second communication protocol that uses a subset of frequency channels from a set of frequency channels, wherein the second communication protocol uses the subset of frequency channels serially; detecting, by the first wireless transceiver, the communication message on one or more frequency sub-channels in the plurality of frequency sub-channels; identifying, by the first wireless transceiver to a second wireless transceiver in the dual radio device, a frequency channel on which the communication message was transmitted, wherein the second wireless transceiver conforms to the second communication protocol, based on the identifying, the second wireless transceiver receiving at least part of the communication message on the frequency channel using one or more time slots.
