There is provided a method of controlling access to a shared wireless medium in a first wireless communication system based on a contention-based protocol for medium access involving carrier sensing, wherein the first wireless communication system is of a first radio access technology. The method comprises determining (S1) whether a second wireless communication system of a second, different radio access technology is operating on the same channel of the shared wireless medium as the first wireless communication system. The method also comprises initiating (S2), if the second wireless communication system is operating on the same channel, a change of a carrier-sensing threshold used in the first wireless communication system for determining, for at least one communication unit, whether the medium is available for access from a first level to a second, different level. |
