To improve performance in devices capable of communication using multiple radio access technologies (RATs), a gap pattern may be constructed in which a first RAT is quieted during certain times to allow for a second RAT to operate without interference. Gap patterns may be constructed based on timeline constraints, such as grant scheduling and HARQ performance, or based on desired performance levels of one or more of the RATs. Gap patterns may be selected by a user equipment or base station. Gap patterns may be selected to protect information in certain subframes. Potential gap patterns may be assigned weights indicating their desirability. |
