Abstract

The disclosed embodiments provide for management of a Wi-Fi network in the presence of a high priority receiver. When a high priory receiver is identified, a portion of the Wi-Fi network that could potentially interfere with the high priority receiver is identified and steps are taken to reduce the probability of such interference. For example, some wireless transmitters may be switched to alternate channels to reduce the probability of interference. By sharing information relating to high priority receivers across a plurality of wireless transmitters, the disclosed embodiments provide for more efficient operation in the presence of high priority receivers when compared to methods that independently detect a high priority receiver at each wireless transmitter.
