Method and apparatus providing in-device co-existence signaling

摘要

In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus, method and computer storage product are disclosed which compose a report at an apparatus having at least one network radio and at least one other radio, the report comprising in-device coexistence related information that combines information descriptive of potential and on-going interference to the at least one other radio as two orthogonal components comprised of power domain information and time domain information and transmit the report to a network station with which the apparatus communicates using the at least one network radio.

1. A method comprising:
composing a report at a user equipment having at least one network radio and at least one other radio, the report comprising in-device coexistence related information that combines information descriptive of potential and on-going interference to the at least one other radio as two orthogonal components comprised of power domain information and time domain information; and transmitting the report to a network base station with which the user equipment communicates using the at least one network radio, wherein if both a power domain limit and a time domain limit are exceeded simultaneously it is assumed that the at least one other radio of the user equipment is experiencing intolerable interference and cannot function properly without intervention from the network.
