摘要:
A method for operating an electronic device using a first and a second communication protocols is provided. The electronic device includes an arbitrator to determine whether to communicate in accordance with the first or second communication protocol. The method estimates a period for transmitting a trigger frame by the electronic device, a period for receiving a first acknowledgement (ACK) frame by the electronic device, a period of a backoff procedure, a period for receiving a predetermined number of delivered frames by the electronic device, and a period of transmitting a second ACK frame by the electronic device. All the above estimated periods are added to be a predetermined time period. The trigger frame is transmitted to initiate the electronic device to communicate in accordance with the first communication protocol. The arbitrator determines whether to grant the electronic device to communicate in accordance with the second communication protocol based on the predetermined time period.

A mobile communications device is provided. A first radio module communicates with a communications device in compliance with a first protocol. A second radio module communicates with a base station in compliance with a second protocol. A CLC radio manager receives a traffic pattern from the first radio module indicating a first traffic allocation for the first radio module, obtains timing information of the base station, obtains a native reference clock from a clock source, converts values of the traffic pattern into the native reference clock counts, aligns the converted traffic pattern with the timing information of the base station, generates one or more CLC bitmaps for the first radio module by converting the aligned traffic pattern into a plurality of WiMAX frames or sub-frames of the timing information, and transmits the generated CLC bitmaps to the base station to recommend a second traffic allocation of the frames or sub-frames.

The invention provides an apparatus capable of wireless communications. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a packet traffic arbitration (PTA) module and a first wireless transceiving module, and the first wireless transceiving module is connected to the PTA module via a wire. The first wireless transceiving module sends a first request for performing a first signal transceiving to the PTA module via the wire, receives a first response to the first request via the wire, and performs the first signal transceiving when the first response indicates that the first request has been granted by the PTA module.

The invention provides a method for operating an apparatus capable of Bluetooth and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)/WiMAX communications. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a Bluetooth module, and a WLAN/WiMAX unit comprising a packet traffic arbitration (PTA) module, and a WLAN/WiMAX module. The Bluetooth module sends a request for Bluetooth signal transceiving to be performed in a Bluetooth time slot to the WLAN/WiMAX unit, wherein the request comprises a length information about length of a transceiving time period for Bluetooth signal transceiving. The Bluetooth module then performs an Bluetooth signal transceiving during the transceiving time period of the Bluetooth time slot after the WLAN/WiMAX unit grants the request. The WLAN/WiMAX unit then performs an WLAN/WiMAX signal transceiveing during a residual time period of the Bluetooth time slot in response to the length information.
摘要:
A communications apparatus is provided. A first radio module provides a first wireless communications service and communicates with a first communications device in compliance with a first protocol. A second radio module provides a second wireless communications service and communicates with a second communications device in compliance with a second protocol. A Co-Located Coexistence radio manager detects activities of the first radio modules, obtains a first traffic pattern describing downlink and/or uplink traffic allocations of the first radio module from the first radio module, and generates a second traffic pattern of the second radio module according to the first traffic pattern to coordinate operations of the first and second radio modules. The second traffic pattern describes recommended downlink and/or uplink traffic allocations to a plurality of sub-frames for the second radio module, and each sub-frame defined by the second protocol includes Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing symbols.
摘要:
An apparatus includes a first and a second wireless communication modules and a packet traffic arbitration (PTA) module. The first wireless communication module issues a first request for a first transmission or reception operation in a first time period, wherein the first request includes information regarding a first power level for performing the first TX or RX operation. The second wireless communication module issues a second request for a second TX or RX operation in a second time period, wherein the second request includes information regarding a second power level for performing the second TX or RX operation. The packet traffic arbitration module receives the first request and the second request, and grants one or both of the first request and the second request according to the first power level and the second power level when the first time period is overlapped with the second time period.
