Handover apparatus and method for avoiding in-device coexistence interference

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to a handover apparatus and method capable of voiding in-device coexistence interference. In order to prevent handover failure due to in-device coexistence interference, an SeNB provides TDM information (including TDM pattern s information or TDM activation information) to a UE during a handover procedure, and the UE performs the handover with a TeNB according to the provided TDM information. By the disclosure, the UE can perform ISM signal transmission/reception and LTE signal transmission/reception with the TeNB in a discriminated manner according to a particular TDM pattern, so as to prevent handover failure due to the in-UE coexistence interference.
