Provided are an electronic device and method for wireless communication, and a computer-readable storage medium. The electronic device comprises: a processing circuit, configured to: construct an interference overlapping diagram based on an interference/coexistence relationship between resource application systems within a management range, wherein a connection point of the interference overlapping diagram represents one or more resource application systems, and an edge of the interference overlapping diagram represents the fact that interference exists between the resource application systems represented by two connection points linked with the edge; remove one or more edges in the interference overlapping diagram so as to enable the interference overlapping diagram to meet a pre-determined condition after the removal; and carry out channel/resource allocation based on the adjusted interference overlapping diagram.

During operation, the radio node may, using a first interface circuit, listen for transmissions from one or more second radio nodes. Based at least in part on the transmissions, the radio node may determine a first list of discovered channels associated with the radio node and the one or more second radio nodes. Then, the radio node may, using a second interface circuit, provide the first list of discovered channels to the one or more second radio nodes. Moreover, the radio node may, using the second interface circuit, receive one or more second lists of discovered channels from the one or more second radio nodes. Next, the radio node may aggregate the first list of discovered channels and the second list of discovered channels into a list of active channels. Furthermore, the radio node may, using the first interface circuit, provide the list of active channels to an electronic device.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein that relate to multiple candidate starting points for a transmit burst in unlicensed spectrum. In some embodiments, a method of operation of a radio access node for performing a transmit burst in an unlicensed spectrum comprises transmitting a transmit burst in an unlicensed spectrum, wherein the transmit burst spans multiple subframes/slots and the transmitting of the transmit burst starts at one of a plurality of candidate starting points defined in at least a first subframe/slot of the transmit burst that occurs after successful completion of a Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) procedure for the transmit burst. In this manner, a radio access node (e.g., an enhanced or evolved Node B (eNB) in Long Term Evolution (LTE)) has flexibility to transmit a downlink transmit burst starting at different starting positions based on LBT outcome.

The present invention relates to wireless networks and more specifically to systems and methods for selecting and implementing communication parameters used in a wireless network to optimize communication between access points and client devices while accounting for effects of adjacent networks. In one embodiment, the present invention includes a Wi-Fi coordinator device that receives packet information from devices within wireless range of the Wi-Fi coordinator. The Wi-Fi coordinator sends the packet information to a cloud intelligence engine which then time shifts the packet information and combines the packet information with other packet information. Using this integrated packet information, the cloud intelligence devices determines the access point settings to improve the operation of the network.
