  • Patent number: 12283981
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided. an indication of a first uplink resource allocation of resource blocks for a transmission on a first carrier, and an indication of a second uplink resource allocation of resource blocks for a transmission on a second carrier are received. An indication of a downlink allocation for receiving a downlink signal is further received. A higher order intermodulation product, which is co-located with a lower order intermodulation product for the first and second allocations resulting from any respective higher order and lower order transceiver nonlinearities is identified. A determination is then made as to whether the co-located higher order intermodulation products have a region of overlap with the downlink allocation. When the co-located higher order intermodulation products have a region of overlap with the downlink allocation, adjustments in the operation are made to account for the overlap of the higher order intermodulation product and the downlink allocation.
