Due to interference that typically occurs in the ISM band, it may be necessary for one or more network devices to switch to an alternative channel. A list of one or more alternate network channels may be generated by a coordinating/gateway device based on the energy level and a distance from a primary network channel. The alternate network channel list may be distributed to neighbor devices and, in the event of interference, link loss, and/or a channel switch notification, the neighbor devices may automatically switch to the first alternate network channel in the list.

Methods, apparatuses, and embodiments related to a technique for controlling channel usage in a wireless network in a multi-band wireless networking system. In a wireless network with multiple wireless networking devices and one or more client devices, communications between the wireless networking devices occurs via a backhaul channel, and communication between the client(s) and the wireless networking devices occurs via a fronthaul channel. Based on interference characteristics of the wireless channels, a device determines a channel usage plan, and communicates the plan via the backhaul channel to the wireless networking devices of the wireless network.

Various arrangements are presented for managing co-existence of a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver with one or more transceivers. A coexistence manager may obtain one or more parameters associated with a first transceiver of the one or more transceivers operating in accordance with a first radio access technology (RAT) and corresponding to an operating event. The first transceiver may be capable of operating in accordance with one or more RATs. The coexistence manager may further determine that the one or more parameters impacts an operation of the GNSS receiver and exceeds a predefined threshold and instruct the first transceiver to perform at least one of selecting a second RAT, changing the one or more parameters or any combination thereof to transmit at least a first portion of a data corresponding to the operating event based on the determination that the one or more parameters impacts the operation of the GNSS receiver.

A method performed by a first network node of a wireless communication network for handling uplink signals sent by a UE. The wireless communication network comprises a serving network node responsible for transmitting downlink signals to the UE, and a non-serving network node capable of receiving uplink signals sent by the UE. The non-serving network node is the first network node and the serving network node is a second network node of the communication network, or vice versa. The method comprises receiving an uplink signal from the UE, measuring signal quality on the received uplink signal, and receiving signal quality information from the second network node regarding signal quality measured by the second network node on the uplink signal received by the second network node, to detect imbalances in experienced signal quality between the first network node and the second network node.
