Abstract

The present invention discloses a user equipment and a communication system. The user equipment configured in a first communication system comprises: a receiver for receiving pre-configured information for co-existence working mode from a base station in the first communication system; a processor for generating a mode establishing request for indicating a co-existence problem experienced by the user equipment and providing assistance information for co-existence working mode in which the user equipment performs a first communication with the base station of the first communication system and performs a second communication with an apparatus in a second communication system which is different from the first communication system; and a transmitter for transmitting the mode establishing request to the base station in the first communication system.

Claims (29)

1. A user equipment configured in a first communication system, comprising:

a processor configured to:

generate a mode establishing request for indicating a co-existence problem experienced by the user equipment and providing assistance information for co-existence working mode in which the user equipment performs a first communication with a base station of the first communication system and performs a second communication with an apparatus in a second communication system which is different from the first communication system,

cause a transmitter of the user equipment to transmit the mode establishing request to the base station in the first communication system,

configure a co-existence working mode according to configuration information received from the base station, the received configuration information is of the co-existence working mode allowed to be utilized by the user equipment; and

cause the transmitter of the user equipment to feedback, to the base station, a message indicating whether configuration of the co-existence working mode has been completed, and

wherein pre-configured information of the co-existence working mode is received from the base station and indicates whether the user equipment can deny uplink transmission of the first communication system.

2. The user equipment of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to: judge whether the base station allows the user equipment to enter the co-existence working mode according to an establishing response message, the establishing response message comprising the configuration information of the co-existence working mode allowed to be utilized by the user equipment.

3. The user equipment of claim 1 , wherein:

the processor is further configured to:

generate a reconfiguration request for requesting to re-configure the co-existence working mode,

cause the transmitter of the user equipment to transmit the reconfiguration request to the base station,

receive, from the base station, a reconfiguration response message comprising reconfiguration information for re-configuring the co-existence working mode, and

to re-configure the co-existence working mode according to the reconfiguration information.

4. A communication system, comprising:

a base station including

one or more processing circuits configured to:

pre-configure information for co-existence working mode,

receive, from a user equipment in a first communication system, a mode establishing request for indicating a co-existence problem experienced by the user equipment and providing assistance information for the co-existence working mode in which the user equipment performs a first communication with the base station and performs a second communication with an apparatus in a second communication system which is different from the first communication system,

encapsulate configuration information of a co-existence working mode allowed to be utilized by the user equipment into an establishing response message,

cause a transmission of the pre-configured information for the co-existence working mode and the establishing response message to the user equipment,

receive a message fed back from the user equipment, the message indicating whether configuration of the co-existence working mode has been completed, and

wherein the pre-configured information of the co-existence working mode indicates whether the user equipment can deny uplink transmission of the first communication system; and

the user equipment including

a processor circuit configured to:

receive the pre-configured information for the co-existence working mode from the base station in the first communication system,

generate a mode establishing request for indicating the co-existence problem experienced by the user equipment and providing the assistance information for the co-existence working mode in which the user equipment performs a first communication with a base station of the first communication system and performs a second communication with the apparatus in the second communication system which is different from the first communication system, and

cause a transmission of the mode establishing request to the base station in the first communication system.

5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the processing circuit of the user equipment is further configured to: judge whether the base station allows the user equipment to enter the co-existence working mode according to the establishing response message.
