    摘要: In some example embodiments, there may be provided a method that includes sending, by a user equipment, a request to a first radio access network to switch a first connection of a dual connection, which is being used by a first user equipment instance of a first subscriber identity module at the user equipment, to a suspended state at the first radio access network while continuing use of a second connection of the dual connection by the first user equipment instance; and receiving, by the user equipment, a response indicating the first connection is suspended. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also disclosed.

    摘要: Apparatuses and methods in a communication system are provided. A first radio resource connection, RRC, with a Radio Access Network, RAN, node is established (502) by a device, the connection having a first Radio Network Temporary Identifier and being associated with a first subscription identity. An RRC setup procedure for establishing a second RRC is performed (504), the connection being associated with a second subscription identity. During or after the RRC setup it is indicated to the RAN node that the device has an existing radio resource connection with the node. A second Radio Network Temporary Identifier associated with the second radio resource connection and an additional Radio Network Temporary Identifier common to the first and second radio resource connections are received (506) and the common Identifier is used (508) for communication with the RAN node.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for switching flow separation in dual connectivity. In some example embodiments, there may be provided a method that includes suspending, at the user equipment, at least one bearer and corresponding quality of service filter, when an access node is added as a secondary base station providing dual connectivity to the user equipment; switching, by the user equipment and in response to the added secondary base station, one or more packets to at least a secondary bearer at the added secondary base station; and reverting, by the user equipment, to the suspended at least one bearer and corresponding quality of service filter, when the added secondary base station is released as a connection at the user equipment. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.
