Methods and systems for addressing interference between co-existing radios of differing radio access technologies (RATs) are provided. One RAT radio send an indication to a second RAT radio when it is transmitting, but does so after determining there is an actual likelihood that the first RAT transmission will interfere with reception by the second RAT radio. Optionally, the second RAT radio makes its own determination of whether there is a likelihood of interference, and ignores the indication if it is determined interference is not likely. Alternatively, the second RAT radio sends an indication to the first RAT radio when it is receiving, only after determining there is a likelihood that first RAT transmissions will interfere with reception by the second RAT radio.

Method and system for addressing interference between co-existing radios of differing radio access technologies

A method is provided for reducing radio frequency interference between a first device and a second device co-located on a UE. The method comprises transmitting, by the UE, to a network element, responsive to the UE detecting IDC interference between the first device and the second device, an output power level of the first device, an amount of de-sense experienced by the second device, and information regarding a plurality of RBs on which the UE requests to perform an uplink transmission.
