ELECTRONIC DEVICE SUPPORTING MULTIPLE SIMS AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240349091 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE SUPPORTING MULTIPLE SIMS AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME
The abstract describes an electronic device that can perform a call service based on one SIM card while allocating RF resources for another SIM card. If a service failure occurs with the second SIM card, the device will scan for network communication related to that SIM card and restrict the scan based on certain criteria.
- Electronic device can handle multiple network communications simultaneously
- Can allocate RF resources for different SIM cards
- Can detect service failures and adjust network communication accordingly
- Performs scans for network communication based on specific criteria
- Restricts scans based on identified cells
Potential Applications: - Mobile phones - IoT devices - Smartwatches
Problems Solved: - Efficient management of multiple network communications - Quick detection and resolution of service failures - Optimization of RF resource allocation
Benefits: - Improved call service reliability - Enhanced network communication efficiency - Better user experience with dual SIM devices
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Dual SIM Management Technology for Mobile Devices" This technology can be utilized in smartphones, IoT devices, and other connected devices to improve network communication reliability and efficiency. It can cater to a wide range of commercial applications in the telecommunications industry.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology impact the battery life of the electronic device? - The technology may have a slight impact on battery life due to increased network communication activities. 2. Can this technology be integrated into existing mobile phone models? - Yes, this technology can be integrated into both existing and future mobile phone models with dual SIM capabilities.
Original Abstract Submitted
according to an embodiment, an electronic device may comprise memory and at least one processor, comprising processing circuitry. the memory may store at least one instruction that, when executed by at least one processor, individually and/or collectively, causes the electronic device to: perform a call service based on a first network communication corresponding to a first subscriber identification module (sim) in a state in which a first portion of rf resources of the electronic device is allocated for the first network communication corresponding to the first sim, and a second portion, at least partially different from the first portion, of the rf resources is allocated for a second network communication corresponding to a second sim different from the first sim; identify a service failure in the second network communication corresponding to the second sim while performing the call service based on the first network communication based on the first sim; based on the service failure, perform a scan for the second network communication corresponding to the second sim one or more times; and perform at least one operation for restricting the scan for the second network communication based on a cell for the second network communication not being identified as a result of the scan one or more times.
