Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed that relate to handling multiple frequency granularities for In-Device Co-existence (IDC). In one embodiment, a method performed by a User Equipment (UE) comprises receiving, from a network node, information that explicitly or implicitly indicates one or more granularities to be used by the UE for IDC Frequency Domain Multiplexing (FDM) indications, the one or more granularities being one or more of a predefined or configured set of two or more granularities that can be used for IDC FDM indications. The method further comprises providing, to the network node, one or more IDC FDM indications in accordance with the information. In this manner, operation of a UE that is capable of sending IDC FDM indications using different granularities is defined.
Claims30
A method performed by a User Equipment (UE), the method comprising:
- receiving, from a network node, information that explicitly or implicitly indicates one or more granularities to be used by the UE for In-Device Co-existence (IDC) Frequency Domain Multiplexing (FDM) indications, the one or more granularities being one or more of a predefined or configured set of two or more granularities that can be used for IDC FDM indications;
- and
- providing, to the network node, one or more IDC FDM indications in accordance with the information.
14-15. (canceled)
A User Equipment (UE) comprising:
- a communication interface;
- and
- processing circuitry associated with the communication interface, the processing circuitry configured to cause the UE to:
- receive, from a network node, information that explicitly or implicitly indicates one or more granularities to be used by the UE for In-Device Co-existence (IDC) Frequency Domain Multiplexing (FDM) indications, the one or more granularities being one or more of a predefined or configured set of two or more granularities that can be used for IDC FDM indications;
- and
- provide, to the network node, one or more IDC FDM indications in accordance with the information.
(canceled)
A method performed by a network node, the method comprising:
- sending, to a User Equipment (UE), information that explicitly or implicitly indicates one or more granularities to be used by the UE for In-Device Co-existence (IDC) Frequency Domain Multiplexing (FDM) indications, the one or more granularities being one or more of a predefined or configured set of two or more granularities that can be used for IDC FDM indications;
- and
- receiving, from the UE, one or more IDC FDM indications in accordance with the information.
29-32. (canceled)
A network node comprising processing circuitry configured to cause the network node to:
- send, to a User Equipment (UE), information that explicitly or implicitly indicates one or more granularities to be used by the UE for In-Device Co-existence (IDC) Frequency Domain Multiplexing (FDM) indications, the one or more granularities being one or more of a predefined or configured set of two or more granularities that can be used for IDC FDM indications;
- and
- receive, from the UE, one or more IDC FDM indications in accordance with the information.
