Abstract: A wireless device includes a first antenna and a second antenna that may be used to communicate with a wireless network. The wireless device initiates a traffic call with a wireless network and activates a first antenna to be used to communicate with the wireless network upon initiating the traffic call. The wireless device selectively activates a second antenna, when initiating the traffic call, based at least in part on a usage of the second antenna during a previous traffic call. For example, the wireless device may maintain the second antenna in an inactive state if the second antenna was deactivated during the previous traffic call and/or remained inactive for at least a threshold duration.

Abstract: Various embodiments include multimode communication devices and methods for managing usage of radio access technologies (RATs). In various embodiments, the multimode communication device may prevent scanning for a signal of higher priority RATs when a communication link is established with a lower priority RAT and the multimode communication device determines that the device is stationary. Signal characteristics of the communication link and/or other resources that can detect when the multimode communication device has moved may be monitored. In response to a change in signal characteristics or another indication that the multimode communication device has moved, scanning of higher priority RATs may be reactivated.

A wearable wireless device may communicate with a first wireless device associated with a wireless network, estimate a separation distance to the first wireless device, and compare a first network identifier of the wearable wireless device with a second network identifier of the first wireless device. The wearable wireless device may then selectively receive, from the first wireless device, network connection information for the wireless network based, at least in part, on the comparison and the separation distance.

Abstract: Various embodiments include methods for a multi-subscription wireless communication device to obtain caller identification (ID) information for a call coming in on a first subscription while on a call on a second subscription. In various embodiments, when the second subscription is supporting a voice call and a page message for the first subscription is received from a network, the wireless communication device may exclude one or more fields from a page response message from the first subscription to the network, blindly accept a proposed service option sent by the network, and receive caller ID information from the network. In some embodiments, one or more fields from a page response message may include at least one of an additional pilots field and an alternate service option list. Receiving caller ID information from the network may be performed when the first subscription cannot support a proposed service option sent by the network.
