Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communications. More particularly, the described features relate to techniques for adaptively or dynamically setting a roaming threshold for a wireless communication link over a first RAT based at least in part on an aspect of a coexisting wireless communication link over a second RAT. In one example, a mobile device may have coexisting wireless communication links over WLAN and BT. In such case, a WLAN roaming threshold may be set based at least in part on a type of BT device employed.
