  • Offloading communication from a cellular network to a wireless local area network
    Patent number: 9642038
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods for offloading of communication traffic from a cellular network to a Wireless Local Area Network (“WLAN”). According to various implementations, a wireless device determines a time period during which a wireless channel of the WLAN is busy. This first time period may include multiple channel-busy periods separated by periods during which the channel is not busy. The wireless device determines a second time period that represents interframe spacings associated with the first time period. The wireless device determines a modified channel utilization for the wireless channel based on the first time period and on the second time period. The wireless device reports the modified channel utilization to the cellular network.
