A method for facilitating coexistence of wireless technologies competing for the same bandwidth includes, with a first component ( 14 ) residing in a first wireless network ( 20 ), initializing the first wireless network ( 20 ) with a superframe period ( 38 ) based on a superframe period ( 28 ) of a second wireless network ( 10 ) and communicating information over the first wireless network ( 20 ) within the Contention Free Period period ( 46 ) of the superframe period ( 38 ) of the first wireless network ( 20 ), and, with a second component ( 4 ) residing in the second wireless network ( 10 ), communicating information over the second wireless network ( 10 ) within the Contention Access Period ( 44 ) of the superframe period ( 38 ), the Contention Free Period ( 46 ) and the Contention Access Period ( 44 ) being distinct regions of the superframe period ( 38 ) of the first wireless network ( 20 ).
