Apparatus and method for performing measurement report considering in-device coexistence interference

A communication apparatus comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processor operably coupled to the memory,
• wherein the processor, when executing program instructions stored in the memory, is configured to:
• detect In-Device Coexistence (IDC) interference;
• cause the apparatus to transmit, to an evolved NodeB (eNB), an IDC indication indicating occurrence or expectation of the IDC interference;
• prepare a measurement report comprising measurement values;
• and
• cause the apparatus to transmit, to the eNB, the measurement report.

A communication method comprising:

• receiving, from a user equipment (UE), In-Device Coexistence (IDC) indication indicating occurrence or expectation of IDC interference;
• transmitting, to the UE, responding information indicating coordination of the IDC interference based on the IDC indication;
• and
• receiving, from the UE, a measurement report comprising measurement values.
