LTE Band Avoidance for RF Coexistence Interference
First Claim
1. A method implemented on a multi-subscription-multi-active mobile communication device for managing interference between a first subscription and a second subscription in response to determining that a first frequency band used by the first subscription will interfere with a frequency band used by the second subscription, comprising:
- generating a modified power measurement for one or both of the first frequency band and a second frequency band available to support the first subscription, wherein the modified power measurement reduces a likelihood that the first frequency band will be used to support the first subscription.

Abstract
Various embodiments enable a multi-active mobile communication device to mitigate (manage) interference by a frequency band used by a first subscription with the frequency band used by a second subscription. The device processor may generate modified power measurements for one or more frequency bands of a first subscription and use the modified power measurement(s) to cause the first subscription to switch from the frequency band that interferes with the frequency band of the second subscription. The modified power measurement may be a decreased power measurement of the first frequency band and/or an increased power measurement of a second frequency band that does not interfere with the frequency band of the second subscription. As a result, various embodiments may mitigate or otherwise manage the impact of coexistence interference between the first and second subscriptions of a multi-active mobile communication device without limiting capabilities of the device or changes to the network.

16. A mobile communication device, comprising:
-
two or more radio frequency (RF) resources; and a processor coupled to the two or more RF resources and configured to; generate a modified power measurement for one or both of a first frequency band in use by a first subscription determined to interfere with a frequency band in use by a second subscription and a second frequency band available to support the first subscription, wherein the modified power measurement reduces a likelihood that the first frequency band will be used to support the first subscription. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)

29. A multi-subscription-multi-active mobile communication device, comprising:
means for generating a modified power measurement for one or both a first frequency band in use by a first subscription determined to interfere with a frequency band used by a second subscription and a second frequency band available to support the first subscription, wherein the modified power measurement reduces a likelihood that the first frequency band will be used to support the first subscription.

30. A non-transitory processor-readable storage medium having stored thereon processor-executable software instructions configured to cause a processor of a multi-subscription-multi-active mobile communication device to perform operations comprising:
generating a modified power measurement for one or both of a first frequency band in use by a first subscription determined to interfere with a frequency band used by a second subscription and a second frequency band available to support the first subscription, wherein the modified power measurement reduces a likelihood that the first frequency band will be used to support the first subscription.
