Self-coexistence of first and second wireless communication networks (200) is improved by transmitting a coexistence beacon from a first station (210, 220) of the first wireless communication network (200) to a first station (210, 220) of the second wireless communication network (200. The coexistence beacon includes information about a traffic reservation of the first station (210, 220) of the first wireless communication network (200). The first station (210, 220) of the second wireless communication network (200) may then use this information in a variety of ways to reduce data collisions between the two networks (200). It can communicate this information to a base station (210) of the second wireless communication network (200). The base station (210) of the second wireless communication network (200) can then use this information to more efficiently allocate frequency channels and/or time slots for future traffic reservations of the first station (220) of the second wireless communication network (200).
