    摘要: The present invention addresses apparatuses, methods and computer program product for improvement of signaling and procedure for in-device co-existence. An IDC Resolution Timer (IRT) is added at both UE and eNB sides. The IRT starts to run once UE sends IDC indication to eNB. If UE doesn't receive any IDC response from eNB after IRT expires, UE could assume that eNB rejects its IDC indication and UE could start to use other possible methods such as switching off other ISM RAT, or using autonomous denial. If UE receive IDC response from eNB before IRT expires, it will reset the IRT.
