3.4.1 Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi typically operates at 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Because Zigbee, Thread, and Bluetooth do not operate above 2.4 GHz, coexistence only affects Wi-Fi devices operating in the 2.4 GHz band. Coexistence schemes are often designed to give other protocols priority over Wi-Fi due to the fact that Wi-Fi is inherently more tolerant to time-domain disturbances. Delaying a transmission or missing an incoming reception over a Wi-Fi interface will usually not have a significant impact on the user experience.
