Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure are directed toward effecting communications in a manner that suppresses side-channel communications that may otherwise cause interference. As may be implemented in a manner consistent with one or more aspects characterized herein, an apparatus and/or method involve transmitting enhanced signals for in-band transmissions over a first one of a plurality of wireless communications channels shared by a plurality of stations for communicating wireless station-to-station communications. While transmitting the enhanced signals, communications by legacy devices on a second one of the wireless communications channels adjacent the first channel are suppressed by generating and transmitting a side channel interference signal on the second channel, therein causing legacy devices receiving the enhanced signals to withhold communications on the second channel.
