Abstract:
The present disclosure presents a method and an apparatus for inter radio access technology (IRAT) cell reselection. For example, the method may include identifying that a user equipment (UE) in an idle or a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode is camped on a cell of a first RAT, determining that the cell the UE is camped on is not broadcasting any neighbor cell of a second RAT, scanning for one or more frequencies of the second RAT based on the determination, and triggering a cell reselection to a cell of the second RAT, wherein the cell of the second RAT is associated with a frequency identified during the scanning. As such, an autonomous IRAT cell reselection may be achieved.
Abstract:
A measurement reporting method to avoid strong interference includes measuring all cells on a neighbor frequency indicated by a network on a neighbor list. A first and second set of cells are identified. The identified first set of cells are from the neighbor list and have a first signal strength a first predefined amount above a serving cell signal strength. The second set of cells are not on the neighbor list and have a second signal strength above a first threshold signal value. The first signal strength of the first set of cells and the second signal strength of the second set of cells are compared to determine whether to send a measurement report for the first set of cells.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) may perform an advanced inter radio access technology (IRAT) measurement of a target cell when the UE transitions from an idle state to a connected state of a serving cell to reduce delay. In such instances, the UE compares the serving cell signal metric to a threshold. The advanced measurement may be performed when the serving cell signal metric, e.g., serving cell received signal code power (RSCP), is below the threshold.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure are generally directed to extended signaling protocols for multi-subscriber identity module (MSIM) user-equipment (UE) for new radio (NR). For example, certain aspects provide a method for wireless communication by a UE. The method generally includes receiving a first message from a network entity enquiring regarding information associated with a multi-subscriber identify module (SIM) capability of the UE, determining the information associated with the multi-SIM capability of the UE in response to the inquiry from the network entity, and communicating one or more messages to indicate the information regarding the multi-SIM capability to the network entity.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit, via a subscription of the UE to a network node, a UE assistance information (UAI) that indicates a reduction to one uplink multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) layer for the subscription. The UE may transmit, via the subscription to the network node, an uplink transmission using one uplink MIMO layer on one transmit (Tx) chain of the UE based at least in part on the UAI and a timer associated with the UAI. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
An apparatus for wireless communication is provided. The apparatus is configured to obtain, based on a first mobile alert associated with a first subscriber identity module (SIM) being scheduled for broadcast from a first network, an indication of receiver resources assigned for receiving the first mobile alert associated with the first SIM. The apparatus is further configured to refrain, based at least in part on the indication, from receiving a second mobile alert associated with a second SIM scheduled for broadcast from a second network. The first mobile alert and the second mobile alert may be associated with messages from at least one of a CMAS or an ETWS.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, while the UE is in an active session using a first radio access technology (RAT) associated with a first subscription of the UE, a call request via the first RAT, wherein the call request is associated with a second subscription of the UE. The UE may determine that the call request is received from a serving cell that is associated with fallback from the first RAT to a second RAT for calls. The UE may reject the call request or transition the second subscription to a third RAT based at least in part on the determination that the call request is received via the serving cell that is associated with fallback from the first RAT to the second RAT for calls. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) user equipment (UE) may communicate, using a first SIM, on a plurality of component carriers. The multi-SIM UE may select a first subset of component carriers from the plurality of component carriers based at least in part on a component carrier prioritization. The multi-SIM UE may identify an amount of memory available to a second SIM. The multi-SIM UE may tune away, based at least in part on the amount of memory available to the second SIM, from a second subset of component carriers The first subset of component carriers may be different from the second subset of component carriers. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a user equipment (UE) may use multiple subscriber identification modules (SIMs) in dual-SIM dual-active (DSDA) communications. A DSDA UE may support identification of a set of available radio frequency (RF) resources for communications, where the set of available RF resources include multiple RF components (e.g., transmit/receive antennas), RF baseband resources (e.g., processing resources that support processing and decoding of transmissions), or combinations thereof. The set of available resources may be shared between multiple SIMs, and the UE may identify different resource partitions of the set of available resources, with different resource partitions used to provide concurrent communications of both the first SIM and the second SIM based on parameters of each SIM.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit, on a first subscriber identity module (SIM) operating in a connected mode, a signal using a first antenna associated with a first antenna module. The UE may configure, for a second SIM operating in an idle mode, a second antenna associated with the first antenna module for receive operations. The UE may switch a transmit antenna associated with the first SIM from the first antenna to a third antenna associated with a second antenna module based at least in part on configuring the second antenna for receive operations and based at least in part on the first antenna module being unable to support concurrent transmission and reception of signals. The UE may transmit, on the first SIM, a signal using the third antenna. Numerous other aspects are described.
