Abstract
Interference between wireless devices communicating in close proximity to each other can result in performance degradation. Although the wireless devices may exchange information to schedule their communications, in some instances, a first wireless device may not notify the second wireless device before initiating a transmission. In addition to interference, components of the second wireless device may be damaged. Functionality can be implemented on the second wireless device to detect transmissions in the first wireless device and accordingly suspend communications of the second wireless device. This can help mitigate interference between the first and second wireless devices and prevent component damage of the second wireless device.
