Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine, that the UE is registered for a voice-over wireless local area network (WLAN) service; and forgo, based at least in part on determining that the UE is registered for the voice-over WLAN service, waking up to perform a long term evolution (LTE) idle-mode operation, wherein the LTE idle-mode operation includes monitoring for a page during a paging occasion. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention include devices, systems and methods for efficient PLMN searching. One method can include initiating a service search procedure. A list of channels to perform a power scan on is prepared. One or more channels are removed from the list of channels that use a same public land mobile network as a camped on cell. Frequencies of the channels are obtained from system information. A power scan is performed on the channels in the list of channels to obtain power scan results. One or more channels are removed from the power scan results. An acquisition process is performed on the channels in the power scan results. Other aspects, embodiments and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Apparatuses and methods for a wireless communication device having multiple Subscriber Identity Modules (SIMs) in which a first SIM is associated with an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) subscription used for IMS services. The method includes but not limited to, attaching the IMS subscription to a first cell of a packet-switched cellular network, determining a cause of IMS voice service being not currently available at the IMS subscription, determining availability of a wireless local area network (WLAN) connection at the IMS subscription, and providing voice service at the IMS subscription based on the cause of IMS voice service being not currently available and the availability of the WLAN connection at the IMS subscription.
Abstract:
Embodiments described herein relate to extending an awake period (on duration) or an inactivity timer duration in a Connected Discontinuous Reception (CDRX) mode for a first subscription based on activities of a second subscription. A method according to some embodiments includes determining that the awake period of the CDRX cycle associated with the first subscription collides with the activities of the second subscription, and extending the awake period by an extended awake period in response to determining that the awake period collides with the activities of the second subscription. In addition, a method according to some embodiments includes determining that the inactivity timer duration collides with the activities of the second subscription, and extending the inactivity timer duration for an extended inactivity timer duration in response to determining that the inactivity timer duration collides with the activities of the second subscription.
Abstract:
Various embodiments provide methods implemented by a processor executing on a mobile communication device (e.g., a multi-SIM-multi-active communication device) to opportunistically schedule a victim subscription's power monitoring activities to occur during periods in which the aggressor subscription is already scheduled not to transmit, thereby reducing the amount of time the aggressor subscription must perform Tx blanking to accommodate the victim subscription's idle-standby-mode operations. Specifically, the victim subscription's monitoring activities may be scheduled to occur while the aggressor subscription is operating in a compressed mode. As a result, the overall throughput/performance of an aggressor subscription is improved as the aggressor experiences relatively fewer blanked transmissions without affecting the victim subscription's ability to perform power-monitoring operations.
Abstract:
Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating power savings while monitoring for paging messages and wakeup signals are disclosed herein. An example method for wireless communication at a UE includes receiving an indication of an active BWP associated with an ON duration of a DRX cycle. The example method also includes monitoring a first bandwidth for a WUS at a WUS occasion of the DRX cycle, the first bandwidth corresponding to a subset of the active BWP. The example method also includes transitioning to an awake state for the ON duration when the WUS is received at the WUS occasion.
Abstract:
A multi-subscriber identification module (SIM) wireless communication device with a first SIM and a second SIM associated with a shared radio frequency (RF) resource may determine that timing collisions are predicted between an active period of a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle associated with the first SIM and an active period of a DRX cycle associated with the second SIM. In response, the wireless communication device may determine whether the first SIM is registered with an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) to use Voice-over-wireless local area network (VoWLAN) service over a wireless local area network (WLAN). If the first SIM is registered with the IMS to use VoWLAN service over the WLAN, the wireless communication device may shift the conflicting DRX cycle associated with the first SIM by a time margin, and receive paging messages for mobile terminating calls on the modem stack associated with the first SIM over the WLAN.
Abstract:
Apparatuses and methods for a wireless communication device having multiple Subscriber Identity Modules (SIMs) in which a first SIM is associated with an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) subscription that supports IMS services. The method includes but not limited to, determining that an IMS activity has completed at the IMS subscription, and determining whether a timer for a scheduled IMS signaling exceeds a time threshold. The timer indicates a time duration until performing the scheduled IMS signaling as scheduled. The method further includes, in response to determining that the timer does not exceed the time threshold, performing the scheduled IMS signaling and releasing a connection for the IMS subscription.
Abstract:
A method for performing cell reselection by a wireless communication device is described. The method includes determining that the wireless communication device should perform reselection to a target cell from a serving cell. The method also includes determining that the wireless communication device does not have paging channel information of the target cell. The method further includes prioritizing reading paging channel information from a broadcast channel of the target cell over reading a paging channel of the serving cell.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may be configured with multiple bandwidth parts (BWPs) and may support multiple subscriber identification modules (SIMs) (e.g., may operate in a multi-SIM (MSIM) mode). The UE may tune away from a default data SIM (DDS) subscription for a tune away gap and may miss any downlink signaling, such as an indication of a BWP switch, for a duration of the tune away. To avoid latency resulting from such missed downlink signaling, the UE may support a mechanism according to which the UE may autonomously switch to a different BWP despite a missed command from a network entity. Such a mechanism may include transmission of a scheduling request (SR) on each of multiple BWPs configured for the UE and monitoring each of the multiple BWPs for signaling responsive to the SR.
