Abstract: In response to determining that a Bluetooth inquiry phase or a Bluetooth paging phase is beginning, a power save (PS) mode signal is sent from a first device to a second device via a wireless local area network (WLAN) communication link, wherein the PS mode signal indicates that the first device is in a WLAN PS mode. A PS poll signal is sent from the first device to the second device via the WLAN communication link in a gap between Bluetooth inquiry phase message transmissions during the Bluetooth inquiry phase or between Bluetooth paging phase message transmissions during the Bluetooth paging phase.

Abstract: In response to determining that a Bluetooth inquiry phase or the Bluetooth paging phase will begin, a power save indicator signal is sent from a first communication device to a second communication device prior to a start of the Bluetooth inquiry phase or the Bluetooth paging phase. A gap between a first Bluetooth communication slot and a second Bluetooth communication slot is determined, and a time period within the gap is determined, where an end of the time period occurs at a defined amount of time prior to a start of the second Bluetooth communication slot. During the time period, one or more power save poll messages are sent from the first communication device to the second communication device, each first power save poll message prompting the second communication device to transmit a respective first WLAN packet to the first communication device.

Abstract: Improvements associated with determining a location of a station device are described. According to one improvement, a method is performed by a network device. The method includes receiving a response packet from a station device, multiple times, as received signals by switching between a plurality of antennas of the network device during reception of each occurrence of the response packet. The received signals are converted to corrupted orthogonal samples. The response packet is received from the station device a final time as a final response packet via a single antenna of the plurality of antennas. Ideal orthogonal samples are re-generated based at least in part on the final response packet. Signal phase information, embedded in the corrupted and ideal orthogonal samples, is converted into estimated locations of the station device.
