Abstract
A method and an apparatus for handling in-device coexistence interference in a user equipment are provided. The method includes receiving a list of non-serving Long Term Evolution (LTE) frequencies from a base station, configuring the non-serving LTE frequencies so as to perform a measurement on the configured non-serving LTE frequencies, and detecting a likelihood of in-device coexistence interference between at least one of the non-serving LTE frequencies and an Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) frequency when an ISM activity is ongoing on the ISM frequency.
Claims10
A method for User Equipment (UE), comprising:
- detecting a likelihood of in-device coexistence interference between at least one of non-serving Long Term Evolution (LTE) frequencies and an Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) frequency when an ISM activity is ongoing on the ISM frequency;
- reporting the likelihood of in-device coexistence interference between the at least one of the non-serving LTE frequencies and the ISM frequency to a base station;
- and
- reporting, to the base station, information on when the ISM activity will be completed.
An user equipment (UE) comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- at least one processor;
- wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
- detect a likelihood of in-device coexistence interference between at least one of non-serving Long Term Evolution (LTE) frequencies and an Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) frequency when an ISM activity is ongoing on the ISM frequency,
- report the likelihood of in-device coexistence interference between the at least one of the non-serving LTE frequencies and the ISM frequency to a base station, and
- report, to the base station, information on when the ISM activity will be completed.
