A method and apparatus for coordinating communications between a Bluetooth system and a WiFi system in a device. Requests for airtime are collected from the Bluetooth system and the WiFi system. A local slot availability mask is prepared showing time slots allocated to the Bluetooth system. The local slot availability mask is forwarded to the WiFi system so that the WiFi system may avoid sending and receiving WiFi wireless communications during time slots allocated for Bluetooth system use. The WiFi system may override the Bluetooth allocation when needed. Changes in priority of the Bluetooth communications and of the WiFi communications result in changes in allocation of time slots.

Described herein are technologies related to an implementation of interference mitigation in a receiver of a portable device. A preemptive-automatic gain control (AGC) system mitigates a collocated or external interfering signal in a receiver of a portable device. The receiver of the portable device receives and processes a data packet of a first radio frequency (RF) signal that includes a Bluetooth (BT) signal, a Wi-Fi signal, a near field communications (NFC), 3G, 4G, or the like. During the processing of the data packet, a collocated or an external second RF signal is detected and received by the receiver. The second RF signal includes an interfering Bluetooth (BT) uplink transmission, a near field communications (NFC) transmission signal, a Wi-Fi transmission signal, 3G or 4G uplink transmission, an LTE signal, or the like.

Apparatus, method and system of controlling communications of a multi-radio device

Described herein are systems, methods and apparatus for decoding in-band on-channel signals and extracting audio and data signals. Memory requirements are reduced by selectively filtering a bit stream of data in the signal so that services of interest which are encoded therein are processed. A single pool of memory may be shared between physical layer and data link layer processing. Memory in this pool may be allocated dynamically between processing of data at the physical and data link layers. When the available memory is not sufficient to support the required services, the dynamic allocation allows for graceful degradation.
