Abstract
Method and a UE for managing an IDC issue. The UE includes a memory, a processor, coupled to the memory and communication module based on LTE RAT, configured to transmit capability information on a licensed carrier associated with a primary cell, wherein the UE supports a LAA operation. Further, the processor, coupled to the communication module based on LTE RAT, is configured to receive an IDC indication from the primary cell served by an eNB. Further, the processor, coupled to the communication module based on LTE RAT, configured to detect the IDC issue in an unlicensed band associated with a secondary cell. Further, the processor, coupled to the communication module based on LTE RAT, configured to transmit an IDC message comprising assistance information to the primary cell and receive a message to resolve the IDC issue based on the assistance information from the primary cell served by the eNB.
