Abstract

A system comprises transceiver logic that receives signals on each of an array of frequencies. The transceiver logic is adapted to communicate using a first communication protocol. Processing logic couples to the transceiver logic. The processing logic identifies from among the array of frequencies a subset of shared frequencies that carry data transmitted using a second communication protocol. The processing logic adjusts frequency selection parameters in accordance with the identification. The processing logic uses the adjusted frequency selection parameters to select a target frequency from the array of frequencies to carry data.
