Publication number: 20190124575Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to managing communications for a first subscription and a second subscription of a wireless communication device, including, but not limited to, using a reduced re-order release timer having a reduced length in response to determining that a length of a tune-away interval exceeds a threshold. In some embodiments, a reduced status prohibit timer is initiated in response to determining that the length of the tune-away interval exceeds a threshold. In some embodiments, two or more status reports are transmitted during a same status prohibit timer in response to determining that transmission window occupancy exceeds a threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 26, 2016Publication date: April 25, 2019Inventors: Xiaojian LONG, Xuepan Guan, Yong Xie, Ling Xie, Shiau-He Tsai, Zhang Zhou

Patent number: 10034320Abstract: Methods and systems are provided to perform an adaptive access procedure on a multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) wireless communication device having at least a first SIM and a second SIM associated with a shared radio frequency (RF) resource. The wireless communication device may detect that signaling on a random access channel (RACH) is required in order to establish access to a first network on a modem stack associated with the first SIM, identify a first protection window having a duration based on timing of an expected response by the first network to signaling on the RACH, and determine whether a tune-away period to decode a paging channel in a second network supported by the second SIM is scheduled to occur within the first protection window. If so, the wireless communication device may postpone signaling on the RACH until completion of the scheduled tune-away period.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2016Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Yongsheng Shi, Ayyappan Ravichandran, Zhang Zhou

Publication number: 20160112907Abstract: User equipment (UE) based pseudo-reselection occurs from a first wireless cell to a second wireless cell. A UE autonomously discovers candidate reselection frequencies and autonomously sets reselection thresholds. The UE perform cell reselection based on the discovered candidate cell reselection frequencies and the autonomously set thresholds.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 6, 2015Publication date: April 21, 2016Inventors: Thawatt GOPAL, Reza SHAHIDI, Mungal Singh DHANDA, Thiagarajan SIVANADYAN, Bhanu Kiran JANGA, Zhang ZHOU, Tom CHIN

Publication number: 20150163725Abstract: The present disclosure presents a method and an apparatus for inter-radio access technology (IRAT) background public land mobile network (BPLMN) re-acquisition mechanism at a user equipment (UE). For example, the method may include performing a BPLMN acquisition mechanism at a UE, checking whether a BPLMN re-acquisition mechanism is valid, determining whether the re-acquisition mechanism requirements are met, and performing the re-acquisition mechanism at the UE. As such, an IRAT BPLMN re-acquisition mechanism at a UE is performed.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2013Publication date: June 11, 2015Applicant: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Zhang ZHOU, Thawatt GOPAL, Yang Ming WANG, Qingxin CHEN

Publication number: 20140152428Abstract: A non-speaking reminding device used in getting off a public transportation mainly comprises a mark section disposed on a displayed object which is convenient to carry at an apparent place. The mark section disposes a popular and easy understanding signified pattern. Preferably, the mark section can further combine a miniature illuminant or a sound resource. Therefore, the subject reminding device visually reminds other people without speaking that the user is going to get off a vehicle, which renders other people able to displace their positions automatically and create an unobstructed passage for the user to pass and get off the vehicle quickly.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2012Publication date: June 5, 2014Inventors: Wei-Zhang Zhou, Zi-He Zhou
