Abstract

An approach is provided for allocating radio resources based on social distance information for one or more social groups. The coexistence platform determines social distance information for at least one group of a plurality of one or more users, one or more devices associated with the one or more users, or a combination thereof. The coexistence platform causes, at least in part, at least one allocation of the one or more radio resources to the one or more devices based, at least in part, on the social distance information for the at least one group or a subset of the at least one group. The coexistence client causes an initiation of a request for at least one allocation of one or more radio resources. The coexistence client determines the one or more radio resources based, at least in part, on social distance information.
