Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are presented to facilitate coexistence between multiple wireless communication protocols implemented by a wireless communication device, using a shared antenna, e.g., due to limitations resulting from a small form factor of the wireless communication device. The wireless communication device may determine whether communications according to a second protocol are causing performance of communications according to a first protocol to fall below a threshold level. If so, the wireless communication device may operate in a mode that favors communications according to the first protocol. If not, the wireless communication device may operate in a mode that favors communications according to the second protocol. For example, the mode that favors communications according to the first protocol may include temporarily implementing operations to remedy the poor performance of the communications according to the first, e.g., periodically, until the performance of the communications according to the first protocol recovers.
