METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR POWER CONTROL FOR IN-DEVICE COEXISTENCE

Abstract:

Methods and apparatuses for power control are disclosed for in-device coexistence (IDC). According to an embodiment, a first radio access technology (RAT) unit measures a metric indicating relative strength of traffic received by the first RAT unit with respect to IDC interference from a second RAT unit that is co-located with the first RAT unit on a user equipment (UE). The first RAT unit determines whether a condition to adjust transmission power of the second RAT unit is satisfied based at least on the measured metric. When the condition is satisfied, an adjustment indication related to a desired adjustment of the transmission power is generated based at least on the measured metric. The adjustment indication is sent to the second RAT unit.
