  • Patent number: 11895679
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) and another device (e.g., another UE) may transmit messages on a shared channel accessed in a half-duplex manner (e.g., within a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) network). The UE and the other device may transmit messages on semi-persistently scheduled (SPS) resources. A message of the UE and a transmission of the other device may collide (e.g., be transmitted in the same subframe). The UE may employ muting and measuring, in which the UE may refrain from transmitting on a SPS resource and may detect the transmission of the other device. Upon detection of other transmissions, the UE may perform resource reselection. During resource selection or resource reselection, the UE may exclude an entire subframe of candidate resources if one of the candidate resources of the subframe is mapped to a resource associated with a transmission from another device.

  • Publication number: 20180167984
    Abstract: A method for reestablishing a radio resource control (RRC) connection on a second subscription upon completion of a voice call on a first subscription for a multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) multi-standby (MSMS) mobile communication device, includes: starting a voice call timer at the start of the voice call on the first subscription; stopping the voice call timer upon completion of the voice call on the first subscription; determining an elapsed time of the voice call on the first subscription based on a value of the voice call timer; and determining whether the elapsed time of the voice call on the first subscription is greater than a value of a network connectivity timer.

  • Patent number: 9959746
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a user equipment (UE) determines an emergency health condition for a user that is defined based on a set of health-related parameters crossing a corresponding set of thresholds. The UE receives health data from a set of health monitoring sensors that are each configured to monitor one or more health-related parameters of the user. The UE detects, while a restricted mode restricting access to a set of communicative functions of the UE is active, that the emergency health condition for the user exists based on the received health data indicating that the set of health-related parameters have crossed the corresponding set of thresholds. The UE disables the restricted mode in response to the detecting. The UE conveys, using one or more communicative functions from the set of communicative functions that are made available by the disabling of the restricted mode, an alarm related to the detected emergency health condition for the user.

  • Publication number: 20170295556
    Abstract: A UE registers with a paging hub to a message forwarding service that is configured to forward information from messages wirelessly transmitted by two or more RANs associated with different RAT-types to the UE over a local wireless network that is separate from the two or more RANs. The UE refrains from monitoring a set of downlink wireless channels used by the two or more RANs while the paging hub monitors the set of downlink wireless channels on behalf of the UE. The paging hub detects a signaling message that is targeted to the UE by a given RAN, and forwards a message including information derived from the signaling message to the local wireless network for transmission to the UE. The UE receives the forwarded message and selectively communicates with the given RAN in response to the received message.

  • Patent number: 9565687
    Abstract: Various embodiments include methods for reporting quality metrics of a wireless communication device to a network that includes scheduling, on the wireless communication device, a tune-away from a first carrier of a first subscription to a second subscription. Quality metrics of the first carrier before the tune-away begins are calculated and stored as frozen quality metrics. During the tune-away, the wireless communication device sends the stored frozen quality metrics to the network. The stored frozen quality metrics may continue to be sent to the network as long as the duration of the tune-away is shorter than a time threshold. If the duration of the tune-away exceeds the time threshold, the wireless communication device may calculate and send actual quality metrics of the carrier to the network.
