WiMAX and Bluetooth coexistence may be enabled in a wireless device that comprises collocated WIMAX subsystem and Bluetooth subsystem. Concurrent WiMAX and Bluetooth communications may be carried on via the wireless device to the extent that WiMAX communication is unaffected by the Bluetooth communications. Scheduling of Bluetooth communications may be performed to optimize Bluetooth communication while avoiding potential collision with the WiMAX communication. The Bluetooth communication scheduling may allow Bluetooth messaging transmission during active WiMAX uplink slots and/or inactive WiMAX slots, Bluetooth messaging reception during active WiMAX downlink slots and/or inactive WiMAX slots, and/or no Bluetooth transmission during active WiMAX downlink slots. Clock signals utilized in the WiMAX subsystem and the Bluetooth subsystem may be synchronized to ensure that Bluetooth communication is aligned with the WiMAX frames. When more than one Bluetooth profile are active and/or needed, prioritization among the Bluetooth profiles may be utilized when scheduling Bluetooth communications.
