Dual SIM operations with one SIM configured for Multi-radio dual connectivity. On request of a first SIM, the second SIM with dual connectivity, releases one of the two connections, by issuing an appropriate request to the network node.

Dual connectivity scenario for coordinated leave

Techniques of operating a MUSIM include providing information by a UE connected to a secondary node within a first network having a secondary cell group in a deactivated state to a second network to which the UE is connected, the information indicating that the UE is to be connected to a secondary cell group of a secondary node in the deactivated state. Specifically, the UE may send to the second network a first gap request requesting a first set of schedule gaps for performing measurements relating to the secondary cell group of the first network, the secondary cell group being in the deactivated state.

Enhanced use of deactivated secondary cell group in dual-RX/dual-TX MUSIM operation

Methods of providing service continuity with respect to a service of a first network for a user equipment and a service of a second network for the user equipment, as well as a user equipment and networks being adapted to be operated according to the methods are disclosed.

Concurrent services of non-public and public networks

A method comprising transmitting a configuration of a default time period, wherein the default time period is for allowing a terminal device to consider a request for leaving an active network connection to a first network as accepted by the first network if the first network does not send a response within that the default period, to the terminal device, receiving a first message, from the terminal device, indicating a request to leave the active network connection, determining an overriding condition that overrides the default time period for leaving the active network condition and transmitting, to the terminal device, a second message comprising the overriding condition.

Optimizing switching of active network connection for a terminal device

Apparatus and method to perform receiving from a network node of a first mobile network of more than one mobile network of a communication network, by a user equipment of the first mobile network, an indication () of an approaching coverage limit for a coverage area associated with a link between the first public land mobile network and the user equipment wherein the user equipment includes a multi subscriber identity module, and wherein a first subscriber identity module of the multi subscriber module is connected to a network node associated with the first mobile network; and based on the receiving, performing pro-active preparation for causing () a second subscriber identity module of the multi subscriber identity module of the user equipment to enable pro-active preparation of switching to a second mobile network of the more than one mobile network in response to an upcoming failure of the link between the user equipment and the first mobile network based on the approaching coverage limit of the coverage area. Further, there is determining, by a network node of a first mobile network of more than one mobile network of a communication network, an approaching coverage limit for a coverage area associated with a link between the first mobile network and a user equipment, wherein the user equipment includes a multi subscriber identity module and wherein a first subscriber identity module of the multi subscriber module is connected to a network node associated with the first public land mobile network; and based on determining, sending towards the user equipment information including an indication to perform pro-active preparation for causing a second subscriber identity module of the multi subscriber identity module of the user equipment to enable pro-active preparation for switching by the second subscriber identity module to a second mobile network of the more than one mobile network in response to an upcoming failure of the link between the user equipment and the first mobile network based on the approaching coverage limit of the coverage area.

Enhanced service continuity utilizing MUSIM

A method and an apparatus for a second user equipment, that causes the apparatus to perform: determining whether a synchronization signal has been received during a first set of synchronization resources; and when it is determined the synchronization signal was received, determining that the apparatus is allowed to use communication resources during a second set of synchronization resources for a first sidelink communication; and when it is determined the synchronization was not received, abstaining from using the communication resources during the second set of synchronization resources for a first sidelink communication; and monitoring the second set of synchronization resources for a synchronization signal.

Apparatus and method

An apparatus may include a processor and computer program code, and may be configured to cause the apparatus to allocate a radio transceiver for a communication of a first SIM and a second SIM for alternative active periods, wherein the first SIM is configured to at least monitor paging messages during its active periods and the second SIM is configured to perform beam management operations during its active periods; monitor a number of scheduled beam management operations of the second SIM skipped during the active periods of the radio transceiver allocated for the first SIM; determine, based on at least data from the performed beam management operations, a threshold value for the skipped beam management operations; and adjust, in response to the number of the skipped beam management operations reaching the threshold value, allocation of the active periods of the radio transceiver between the first SIM and the second SIM.

Method for beam management measurements

There is provided reduced power consumption in devices that use at least two identities for communications. A method comprises aligning () a plurality of paging occasions across at least two identities of a communication device. The aligning is performed via requesting and receiving () from a communication network a paging occasion for the communication device with at least two identities using at least one of the identities.
