Abstract

This disclosure describes techniques for operating multiple communication protocols on a single channel. In embodiments, such techniques may involve determining multiple communication activities to be performed using a wireless transceiver, retrieving priority information associated with the multiple communication activities to be performed, and determining, based on the priority information, a priority level for individual communication activities of the multiple communication activities. Once such a priority level has been determined, the techniques may further involve identifying a prioritized communication activity of the multiple communication activities having the highest priority level and establishing a wireless communication session between the electronic device and a station associated with the prioritized communication activity using a communication protocol associated with the prioritized communication activity.
