Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Some wireless communications systems may support a determination of user equipment (UE) capabilities, such as a category or a coverage level for broadcast or multicast content. In some cases, a radio interface may be configured to account for an indicated capability of a target UE. For example, a base station may receive an indication of a capability of a particular targeted UE. The capability of the targeted UE may be specified by a service provider to deliver multicast or broadcast content, and subsequently associated with a radio interface between the base station and the target UE. The radio interface may then be configured based on the indicated capability of the target UE, for example, by configuring a transport block size or bandwidth. The base station may then transmit broadcast or multicast content to the UE using the configured radio interface.

Abstract: A method for scheduling monitor activity for a mobile communication device includes: receiving less than all of a plurality of bursts for a first subscription; decoding a packet header by decoding the received bursts; determining if a decoded temporary flow identity (TFI) matches a TFI for the mobile communication device; and in response to a mismatch between the decoded TFI and the TFI for the mobile communication device: inhibiting reception of a remaining plurality of bursts; and scheduling the monitor activity in timeslots reserved for the remaining plurality of bursts for the first subscription that do not conflict with transmissions on a second subscription.

Abstract: A method for performing a manual public land mobile network (PLMN) selection that includes: selecting an absolute radio frequency channel number (ARFCN) from an ARFCN set for one or more frequency bands supported by or enabled on a mobile communication device; determining whether the selected ARFCN is included in at least one allocation table of a first cell of a first PLMN; in response to determining that the selected ARFCN is not included in the at least one allocation table of the first cell of the first PLMN, adding the selected ARFCN to a second ARFCN set; and determining a PLMN identity (PLMN-ID) for each ARFCN in the second ARFCN set.

Abstract: Methods are provided that enable mitigation of desense from a transmission on a first radio frequency (RF) resource associated with a first SIM to a receiver circuit of a second RF resource associated with a second SIM in the same device. A multi-SIM wireless device, such as a dual-SIM dual active (DSDA) device, may utilize characteristics of uplink and downlink signals to determine an optimal action that reduces interference from conflicting signals. Mitigating actions do not require involvement on the network side, and may greatly improve processing time for implementing interference prevention measures.

Abstract: A method is provided for conserving power on a wireless communication device having multi-subscription capabilities. Instead of scanning different paging channels for each of a plurality of subscriptions, power may be conserved by using a single paging channel from a serving access network for all paging messages from the plurality of subscriptions. The wireless communication device may provide a serving access network information for the plurality of subscriptions, where each of the plurality of subscriptions is associated with a different paging channel. The serving access network may select or obtain a single paging channel for all paging messages from different core networks associated with the plurality of subscriptions. The wireless communication device may be informed of the selected paging channel by the access network so it monitors for paging messages for all subscriptions on that selected paging channel only.

Abstract: The various embodiments include a dual-SIM-dual-active (DSDA) device and methods for implementing robust transmit (Tx) processing to resolve radio frequency coexistence interference between two subscriptions operating on the DSDA device. The DSDA device may detect when one subscription (the “aggressor”) de-senses the other subscription (the “victim”) as a result of the aggressor's transmissions, and in response, implement robust Tx processing to mitigate the effects of de-sense on the victim.
