Abstract
In a wireless local area network (WLAN) that includes one or more wireless access points capable of serving one or more wireless clients, presence of one or more instances of interference from a particular type of interferer is detected on at least one channel in an unlicensed frequency band. In response to detecting the interference, a radio resource management process is biased to continue operation of at least one of the one or more access points, or individual radios of a multi-radio access point, on the channel to make at least some use of the channel for one or more wireless clients.
