Apparatus and Method for Radio Systems Co-Existence on Secondary Carriers

摘要

A mechanism for radio systems co-existence on secondary carriers may be of particular value to radio systems that that operating on the same bands as Wi-Fi(TM) (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, or the like) or the bands of similar radio systems. A method providing such a mechanism may include operating Provide Wireless a first network node of a first radio network on a primary channel. The method may also include identifying a secondary channel for expanded operation of the first network node. The method may further include providing a second network node with an opportunity to capture the secondary channel.
