First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- determining that downlink reception on a first CC is degraded due to interference caused by a second CC; and
in response to the determining, arranging UL signaling to inform a network of a quantitative power difference between the first and the second CC and further identifying which of the first or second CCs exhibits a higher power.
