Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for identifying and mitigating in-device coexistence interference for multicarrier systems implementing soft combining decoding techniques. In some aspects, the described techniques include identifying time-frequency resources of a received signal subject to coexistence interference at a transceiver of a wireless device. The time-frequency resources may include, for example, symbols, slots, code-blocks, sub-frames, subcarriers, etc. Resource-specific mitigation may then be applied to the identified resources, for example, including skipping or nulling the interfered resources in the time domain, frequency domain, or both. In some aspects, the resource-specific mitigation may be performed at the soft-combining stage of the decoding process, such as by skipping or nulling one or more log likelihood ratio (LLR) instances that correspond to the interfered resource(s).

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.
