MULTIPLE SUBSCRIBER IDENTITY MODULE (SIM) USER EQUIPMENT (UE) FORCED RADIO ACCESS TECHNOLOGY (RAT) SELECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18548057 titled 'MULTIPLE SUBSCRIBER IDENTITY MODULE (SIM) USER EQUIPMENT (UE) FORCED RADIO ACCESS TECHNOLOGY (RAT) SELECTION
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) supporting multiple subscriptions, involving camping on cells of different radio access technologies (RATs) with different data subscriptions and transitioning between them.
- The method involves camping on a first cell of a first RAT with a first data subscription.
- The UE also camps on a second cell of a second RAT with a second data subscription.
- It triggers a transition to the first cell of the first RAT for the second data subscription.
- The UE performs activities on behalf of the second data subscription using the first data subscription.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in multi-SIM devices, IoT devices, and dual-SIM smartphones.
Problems Solved
This method solves the issue of efficiently managing multiple data subscriptions on a single device.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved data management, seamless transition between different subscriptions, and enhanced user experience.
Potential Commercial Applications
Potential commercial applications include mobile devices, IoT devices, and telecommunications equipment.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be methods for managing multiple subscriptions on a single device, such as dual-SIM smartphones.
Unanswered Questions
How does this method impact battery life on the user equipment?
This article does not address the potential impact of this method on the battery life of the user equipment. It would be important to understand if transitioning between different cells and managing multiple subscriptions affects the device's power consumption.
Are there any limitations to the number of subscriptions that can be supported by this method?
The article does not mention any limitations on the number of subscriptions that can be supported. It would be crucial to know if there is a maximum limit to the number of subscriptions that can be managed effectively using this method.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) supporting multiple subscriptions, includes camping on a first cell of a first radio access technology (RAT) with a first data subscription, and camping on a second cell of a second RAT with a second data subscription. The method also includes triggering a transition to the first cell of the first RAT for the second data subscription. The method further includes performing, with the first data subscription, activities on behalf of the second data subscription.
