Abstract

A method is provided for managing a number of active wireless data streams in a device. An operating band of the device is detected, wherein the device is capable of simultaneously supporting Wi-Fi and Bluetooth communications by time sharing the operating band between the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth communications. A request is detected for simultaneously operating in at least two of a Wi-Fi communication mode, a Bluetooth source communication mode, or a Bluetooth sink communication mode. In response to detecting the request, only two of the Wi-Fi communication mode, the Bluetooth source communication mode, or the Bluetooth sink communication mode are selected.
