  • Patent number: 11564269
    Abstract: A user equipment includes a radio frequency (RF) modem configured to wirelessly communicate with at least one mobile network operator and a wireless local area network (WLAN) modem configured to wirelessly communicate with at least one WLAN access point. The user equipment further includes a processor coupled to the RF modem and the WLAN modem and at least one memory storing executable instructions. The executable instructions are configured to manipulate at least one of the processor and the RF modem to establish a first cellular connection with a first mobile network operator based on a first subscription represented by a first subscriber identity, and virtualize the first cellular connection as a wireless local area network (WLAN) connection for use by one or more processes executed by the processor for a second subscription represented by a second subscriber identity.

  • Patent number: 11122480
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for selecting an access point (AP) for providing a service at a user equipment (UE). The example method may identify, by a user equipment (UE), a first AP available for communication. The example method may determine, by the UE, whether the first AP is suitable based, at least in part, on an indication for the first AP in an AP history table stored in a memory of the UE, wherein the indication is based on UE-determined metrics determined during one or more prior communications between the UE and the first AP. The example method may also include establishing communication between the UE and the first AP, in response to determining that the first AP is suitable.

  • Publication number: 20200221381
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide an apparatus for wireless communication. The apparatus generally includes an interface configured to obtain at least one voice packet from an access point (AP), wherein the at least one voice packet is obtained during one or more service periods (SPs) of a target wake time (TWT) protocol, and a processing system configured to process the at least one voice packet obtained during the one or more SPs.

  • Publication number: 20170118707
    Abstract: Techniques are described for wireless communication. One method includes determining at a first time that a voice call is routed over a wireless local area network (WLAN); restricting an application processor from entering a first sleep state based at least in part on determining that the voice call is routed over the WLAN; determining at a second time that the voice call is offloaded from the WLAN to a wireless wide area network (WWAN); and enabling the application processor to enter a second sleep state based at least in part on determining that the voice call is routed over the WWAN.

  • Publication number: 20160021673
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for IMS based WWAN-WLAN mobility are described. A user equipment (UE) may generate channel quality metrics and media performance metrics for a source radio access technology (RAT). The UE may then select a state for the source RAT metrics. The UE may also generate channel quality metrics for a target RAT and select a state for the target RAT. The UE may make a handover decision based on the states of the RATs and on priority levels for the RATs.
