Abstract
A hybrid device includes both an IEEE-802.11e type WLAN client station (QAP) and a BLUETOOTH piconet unit interconnected such that the BLUETOOTH transmissions are scheduled to occur according to a transmission opportunity (TXOP) that was granted by a quality of service (QoS) access point (QAP) in a basic service set (BSS). Requests for BLUETOOTH traffic are handled by the associated QSTA which generates an add traffic service (ADDTS) to the QAP.
