Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for a wireless device to perform low latency communication using historical beam information. The wireless device may establish a radio resource control connection, and may subsequently release the resource control connection. The wireless device may store antenna element and beam information for the resource control connection. The wireless device may determine whether to use the stored antenna element and beam information when establishing another radio resource control connection. If the wireless device determines to do so, the wireless device may use the stored antenna element and beam information when establishing that radio resource control connection.

Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE) to adaptively manage system information, particularly on-demand system information. A UE may receive mandatory system information from a wireless network and may determine that at least some additional, e.g., on-demand, system information would be beneficial. The UE may evaluate whether a condition is met to request the additional system information and may initiate a random access procedure to request the additional system information. If the random access procedure fails, the UE may adjust its behavior, including reselection behavior, in response to lacking the additional system information.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a dual subscriber identity module (SIM) dual standby (DSDS) capable user equipment (UE) devices to perform data operations with a first SIM that is not capable of or preferred for packet switched (PS) services and a second SIM that is capable of or preferred for PS services. A timer may be initiated upon radio frequency (RF) chain handover from the first SIM to the second SIM, whereupon a first connection associated with the first SIM is maintained in an idle state while the timer is running. Upon expiration of the timer, the UE may determine whether to send a scheduling request to maintain or release the first connection. The timer may be utilized when a call is dropped over the first connection, to increase the likelihood of successfully receiving a callback. The timer may be shortened in duration to reduce reception of spam messaging.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for efficiently handling connection rejections. A wireless device may detect barring conditions in response to receiving one or more connection rejections. The wireless device may bar one or more connections based on the barring conditions, and may attempt to access network services over one or more other connections.
