Abstract: Operating a user equipment (UE) which comprises a first radio that is configured to operate according to a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second RAT. The UE may receive a request to perform tune away operations (e.g., page decoding) for the second RAT while performing warm up procedures for the first RAT. If the request is received during crystal oscillator or radio frequency circuitry warm up, the tune away operations may be performed after these operations. If the request is received during tracking loop operations, they may be cancelled and the tune away operations may be performed. After the tune away operations, the tracking loop operations may be restarted or resumed.

Abstract: Performing selective tune-away by a user equipment (UE). The UE may include a first radio that is configurable to operate according to a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second RAT. The UE may use the radio to communicate using the first RAT and the second RAT using the first radio. The UE may also perform measurement of a received signal strength for the first RAT. The UE may determine if the received signal strength is less than a threshold. Neighbor cell measurement and/or synchronization may be performed if the received signal strength is less than the threshold. However, if the received signal strength is greater than the threshold, the neighbor cell measurement and/or synchronization may not be performed. The UE may continue to perform page decoding for the first RAT using the first radio, e.g., for each discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle of the first RAT.

Abstract: Performing detection of a synchronization beacon. The UE may include a first radio which supports, e.g., simultaneously, a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second RAT. The UE may perform transmission according to the first RAT on the first radio with a base station. The UE may receive a request to perform a tune-away to detect a synchronization beacon on the second RAT. The synchronization beacon may repetitively occur in successive first time periods. The UE may repeatedly perform a search for the synchronization beacon in different sub-portions over successive first time periods. The search may be repeatedly performed until the synchronization beacon is located in a respective sub-portion of one of the successive time periods.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and computer-readable media are described that configure wireless circuitry of a wireless device. The wireless device establishes a connection to a first wireless network using first and second receiving signaling chains. The wireless device obtains a configuration processing delay time for the first wireless network and sends a first channel status report having a rank indicator value of one before starting a tune-away event at a time based on the obtained configuration processing delay time. The wireless device reconfigures at least one of the radio frequency signaling chains to receive signals from a second wireless network during the tune-away event. The wireless device subsequently sends a second channel status report having a rank indicator value greater than one before ending the tune-away event and reconfiguring the at least one of the radio frequency receive signaling chains back to the first wireless network.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for adaptively adjusting temporal parameters (e.g., neighbor cell search durations). In one embodiment, neighbor cell search durations during discontinuous reception are based on a physical channel metric indicating signal strength and quality (e.g. Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI), Reference Signal Receive Quality (RSRQ), etc.) of a cell. In a second embodiment, neighbor cell search durations are based on a multitude of physical layer metrics from one or more cells. In one variant, the multitude of physical layer metrics may include signal strength and quality metrics from the serving base station as well as signal strength and quality indicators from neighbor cells derived from the cells respective synchronization sequences.
