  • Patent number: 12701451
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive (e.g., from a network entity) a control message indicating a configuration for reporting channel state feedback (CSF) for a control channel region. The configuration may indicate the control channel region and one or more resources for the UE to use to transmit a report indicating the CSF. The UE may monitor the control channel region for control channel transmissions. Based on the monitoring, the UE may transmit the report indicating the CSF via the one or more resources and according to the configuration. In some cases, the UE may perform channel measurements on the control channel region to obtain the CSF. The report may indicate a candidate aggregation level or a signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR). The UE may receive subsequent control channel transmissions via the control channel region based on the report.

  • Patent number: 12666247
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may evaluate a first and second utility value for a first and second subscriber identity module (SIM) associated with a first and second service subscription respectively for each zone of a set of zones along a route of the UE. The first utility value and the second utility value may be based on a throughput level and a network load of the service subscriptions for each zone of the set of zones that includes zones that the UE is predicted to travel through. Therefore, the UE compares the first utility value to the second utility value to determine a service subscription switch condition for each zone for the UE to switch between the SIMs of the UE based on a function of the service subscription switch conditions for the set of zones.
