Abstract: The devices, systems, and methods discussed herein facilitate the transition of a remote UE device and a relay UE device from either the RRCJDLE state or the RRCJNACTIVE state to the RRC_CONNECTED state in order to relay data. In some examples, in response to receiving a first Radio Resource Control (RRC) message from the remote UE device requesting connection to a base station, the relay UE device transmits an RRC connection request message to the base station. If the relay UE device receives a favorable RRC response message from the base station, the relay UE device transitions to the RRC_CONNECTED state with the base station and forwards the first RRC message to the base station. In some examples, the relay UE device transmits, to the remote UE device, a status update message to inform the remote UE device of the RRC response message received from the base station.

Abstract: The described embodiments relate to wireless communications, including methods and apparatus for dynamically adjusting device capability of a device that includes multiple subscriber identity modules (SIMs) and/or electronic SIMs (eSIMs) during out-of-service scenarios. A multi-SIM/eSIM wireless device can include at least two SIM/eSIM profiles that each provide access to cellular wireless services.

Device capabilities for the one or more active SIM/eSIM profiles not in the OOS state are also controlled to ensure the active SIM/eSIM profile in the OOS state has computing resources available to perform radio frequency (RF) scan procedures.
