Abstract:
Various embodiments include methods and wireless devices implementing such methods for detecting when the wireless device is operating in a limited service state (LSS) mode, transitioning from operating in LSS to satellite-based SOS mode in response to the wireless device operating in LSS mode, and sending a text message or initiating a voice call using the satellite-based SOS mode.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive one or more reference signals via one or more beams. The UE may identify a channel model associated with a transmission path of the one or more reference signals. The UE may transmit a report associated with the one or more reference signals, and the report is based at least in part on a beam refinement gain associated with the channel model. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for optimizing power consumption in multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) devices in a wireless communication system is disclosed. For example, a UE may determine, in a Multi-Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) Multi-Subscriber (MSMS) mode, whether one of a plurality of subscriptions is configured as a Default Data Subscription (DDS) or a non-DDS; and perform a carrier aggregation power saving mode procedure for the one of the plurality of subscriptions based on a determination that the one of the plurality of subscriptions is configured as the DDS or the non-DDS.
Abstract:
Various aspects include methods for managing communication links with different networks. A user equipment (UE) processor may start a first retry timer in a first network communication module in response to receiving a connection reject message from a first communication network, send a value of the first retry timer to a second network communication module, start a second retry timer in the second network communication module based on the value of the first retry timer, send a service request from the second network communication module to a second communication network, and send a connection success message from the second network communication module to the first network communication module upon establishing a communication link with the second communication network before the second retry timer expires. The first communication network may be a terrestrial cellular network and the second communication network may be a satellite communication network.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides for reducing power consumption in multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) devices. For example, a user equipment (UE) may determine that a first subscription associated with a first SIM corresponds to a designated data subscription (DDS). The first subscription being different from a second subscription associated with a second SIM at the UE. In one aspect, the UE may transmit carrier aggregation (CA) capability information including one or more intra-cell frequency bands for the second subscription based on determining that the first subscription corresponds to the DDS. In another aspect, the UE may adjust a measurement report identifying the at least one neighboring intra-band network entity based on determining that the at least one neighboring intra-band network entity is available
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may communicate on a primary carrier using a first antenna port. The UE may communicate on a secondary carrier using a second antenna port. The UE may determine whether to switch the secondary carrier from the second antenna port to the first antenna port based on a channel condition associated with the second antenna port. The UE may switch the secondary carrier from the second antenna port to the first antenna port based on a determination to switch the secondary carrier from the second antenna port to the first antenna port. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Data connection management in a mobile device is achieved by selectively allowing and denying data access to applications installed on the mobile device based on certain conditions, for example, when the mobile device is roaming, when the battery power is low, or when the data usage has exceeded a limit
Abstract:
For a multi-receive multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) UE, one SIM or subscription may help with measurements of another SIM or subscription to help address the issue of large latency caused by insufficient measurement gaps. A method of wireless communication at a user equipment with a first subscription and a second subscription includes forwarding a neighbor cell list from the first subscription to the second subscription when preparing for measurement. The method also includes performing, by the second subscription, measurements of neighbors from the neighbor cell list. The method further includes forwarding the measurements of neighbors from the neighbor cell list, from the second subscription, to the first subscription. The first subscription may measure a portion of the neighbors from the neighbor list while the second subscription measures another portion of the neighbor. The second subscription may or may not tune from a serving RAT to perform the measurements.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may identify, based at least in part on a scaling factor, one or more phase weights associated with a transmit beam of the wireless communication device. The scaling factor is associated with a frequency in a frequency band associated with the wireless communication device. The wireless communication device may generate, based at least in part on the one or more phase weights, the transmit beam. The wireless communication device may transmit a wireless communication using the transmit beam. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided for selecting cellular and satellite networks. An example method for switching between communication networks includes receiving one or more signals via a first wireless communication network with a mobile device, determining a second wireless communication network is available based at least in part on a location of the mobile device and a time, detaching the mobile device from the first wireless communication network at the time if the second wireless communication network is available, and receiving one or more signals from the second wireless communication network with the mobile device after the time.
