    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.

    Abstract: A method for performing manual public land mobile network (PLMN) search includes: receiving a command to perform manual PLMN search on an inactive subscription associated with a first subscriber identity module (SIM) of a communication device; determining if a data connection is enabled on an active subscription associated with a second SIM of the communication device; and if the data connection is not enabled on the active subscription, performing the manual PLMN search on the inactive subscription by tuning away from the active subscription to identify available operators associated with the first SIM.

    Abstract translation: 用于执行手动公共陆地移动网络(PLMN)搜索的方法包括:接收对与通信设备的第一用户识别模块(SIM)相关联的非活动订阅执行手动PLMN搜索的命令; 确定在与所述通信设备的第二SIM相关联的活动订阅上是否启用数据连接; 以及如果所述活动订阅上未启用所述数据连接,则通过从所述活动订阅中调出来识别与所述第一SIM相关联的可用运营商来执行所述非活动订阅上的手动PLMN搜索。

    Abstract: Methods and devices for controlling recovery from an out-of-service state on a multi-SIM wireless device that has at least two subscription identification modules (SIMs), and that determines whether a voice call or an active data communication session was dropped upon losing service, and prioritizes service recovery on the modem stack associated with the dropped voice call or active communication session. If neither a voice or data call was dropped upon losing service on both SIMs, the multi-SIM wireless device may calculate a priority value for each of the first and second SIMs, calculate an RF resource allocation percentage for each of the first and second SIMs, and grant use of the RF resource to the modem stacks associated with the first and second SIMs based on the calculated RF resource allocation percentages.

    Abstract: Methods and devices are disclosed for enabling efficient service acquisition on multiple SIMs of a multi-SIM wireless communication device. After both SIMs have lost service, or after initial power up of the wireless device, the wireless device may detect radio frequency channels associated with wireless networks of all SIMs, and determine whether the strongest received radio frequency channel matches a preferred network of any SIM. Upon detecting a match, the wireless device may awaken that SIM and automatically camp that SIM on cell of the matched radio frequency channel. In this manner, the wireless device may avoid repetition typically involved in acquiring service on multiple SIMs.

    Abstract: A method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a configuration for dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) operation where a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second RAT share spectrum. The configuration includes channel parameters associated with the first RAT. The method includes determining, based on the configuration, a first set of synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) that will not be transmitted via the second RAT and a second set of SSBs that will be transmitted via the second RAT. The method further includes refraining from performing a cell search on the first set of SSBs that was determined to not be transmitted via the second RAT. The method includes performing the cell search on the second set of SSBs that was determined to be transmitted via the second RAT.
