  • Patent number: 11882530
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may operate in a dual-connectivity (DC) configuration, and may measure signals from more than one radio access technology (RAT). The UE may receive a first signal power for a first RAT and a second signal power for a second RAT. The UE may determine a common gain state for the first RAT and the second RAT based on the first signal power and the second signal power. The UE may then apply the common gain state to a first receiver chain within the UE for the first RAT and to a second receiver chain within the UE for the second RAT, where the first receiver chain and the second receiver chain share at least one shared low noise amplifier (LNA).

  • Patent number: 11617140
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may support multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) operation in dual SIM dual active (DSDA) deployments. In some aspects, the UE may receive, via an antenna of the UE, a first signal associated with a first network subscription on a first receive path of the antenna and a second signal associated with a second network subscription on a second receive path of the antenna. The UE may determine a signal strength for each of the first signal and the second signal, determine a first gain for the first receive path and a gain for a low noise amplifier (LNA) coupled with the antenna based on the signal strength of the first signal, and determine a gain for the second receive path based on the signal strength of the second signal and the gain of the LNA.

  • Patent number: 11582751
    Abstract: A method of wireless communications by a user equipment (UE) includes detecting, in response to a bandwidth part (BWP) switch, a first BWP of a first carrier aggregation signal and a second BWP of a second carrier aggregation signal. The first BWP of the first carrier aggregation signal and the second BWP of the second carrier aggregation signal are each within a predetermined frequency range of each other. The method also includes tuning a radio frequency (RF) channel to a center of a wideband channel including the first BWP and the second BWP. The method further includes processing the wideband channel including both the first BWP of the first carrier aggregation signal and the second BWP of the second carrier aggregation signal with a single phase locked loop (PLL).

  • Publication number: 20180338284
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) determines availability of one or more of the radio frequency (RF) resources (e.g., shared power tracking mode devices) and dynamically assigns (during simultaneous active operation or transmission by the two or more transmit chains) one or more RF resources to selected one or more active transmit chains in the user equipment. In one instance, the UE selectively assigns the shared power tracking mode device(s) to the active transmit chain(s) based on the determined availability.
