Abstract
A method for avoiding signal interference between a first RF device and a second RF device is provided. The first and second RF devices are co-located and the first RF device is configured to operate in a first frequency range. The second RF device is configured to operate in a second frequency range, where the first frequency range overlaps, at least in part, the first frequency range. The method initiates with a communication interface being provided between the first RF device and the second RF device. Then, the second RF device is configured to avoid RF signal collisions with the first RF device when the first RF device is active. An apparatus where two RF devices are co-located without causing interference for each other is also provided.
