Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may identify a throttling indicator for a shared resource associated with a modem at the UE. The CE may determine a configuration of the modem based on a configuration received from a Radio Resource Control layer of the UE. Based on the modem configuration and the throttling indicator, the UE may identify a throttling level to apply to the modem. The UE may adjust the modem configuration for communicating with a base station based on the throttling level in order to reduce resource usage below a usage threshold. By reducing usage of the shared resource by the modem, the UE may have a greater availability of the shared resource to meet the needs of other components of the UE. This may provide an improved user experience at the UE, among other benefits.

Modem throughput throttling

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to optimization of packet processing when packets are received out of order in sequence. For example, a user equipment (UE) may determine whether a difference between a sequence number of a first packet and a sequence number of a second packet received subsequent to receiving the first packet exceeds a sequence jump threshold. The UE may disregard the second packet from processing in response to at least determining that the difference is greater than the sequence jump threshold. The UE may receive and process a plurality of packets respectively associated with a plurality of sequence numbers that are greater than the sequence number of the first packet and less than the sequence number of the second packet.

Downlink data stall optimization by addressing an out-of-order packet sequence

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE). The UE starts a first timer (such as a discontinuous reception (DRX) hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) round-trip-time (RTT) timer), after sending an uplink (UL) data transmission to a network entity. The UE then starts a second timer (such as a DRX retransmission timer) when the first timer expires. The UE then determines whether to wake up or sleep for a duration of the second timer based on a prior block error rate (BLER).

Power savings for voice services

Aspects of the present disclosure provide example apparatus, methods, processing systems, and computer readable mediums implementing techniques for modifying a configuration of a radio bearer based on a request for quality of service (QoS) for a communication flow. In aspects, a user equipment (UE) receives a request for a QoS for a communication flow and maps the communication flow to a radio bearer based on a downlink map. The UE is configured to communicate over a number of radio bearers. The downlink map associates one or more communication flows to one or more of the number of radio bearers. The UE then modifies a configuration of the radio bearer based on the request for the QoS. During operation, the UE receives one or more downlink packets on the radio bearer and processes the one or more downlink packets according to the QoS.

Modifying a configuration of a radio bearer based on a request for quality of service (QOS) for a communication flow

In an embodiment, a UE receives a first uplink grant for a first RAT (e.g., 5G NR) and a second uplink grant for a second RAT (e.g., LTE). In one embodiment, the UE schedules an uplink transmission on the first RAT (e.g., by selectively dropping the uplink transmission on particular resource blocks) so as to manage an amount of time that is based on concurrent uplink transmissions on both the first and second RATs are performed. In another embodiment, the UE establishes a first period of time where a BSR transmitted by the UE on the first RAT is adjusted based on scheduling of concurrent uplink multi-RAT transmissions, and a second period of time where no BSR is transmitted by the UE on the first RAT based where concurrent uplink transmissions on both the first and second RATs are not permitted to be scheduled.

Managing concurrent multi-rat uplink transmissions at a user equipment

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine, during a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) reordering timer period, whether one or more packet transfer criteria are satisfied. The UE may transfer, during the PDCP reordering timer period, one or more packets from a reordering window based at least in part on a determination that the one or more packet transfer criteria are satisfied. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Techniques for improving packet data convergence protocol reordering configuration

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. A user equipment (UE) may configure a first initial set of maximum transmit powers for a first subscriber module. The UE may configure a second initial set of maximum transmit powers for a second subscriber module. The UE may configure a first maximum transmit power associated with a first connection for the first subscriber module. The UE may configure, independently of the configuration of the first maximum transmit power, a second maximum transmit power associated with the second connection. The UE may transmit based at least in part on at least one of the first maximum transmit power or the second maximum transmit power. Numerous other aspects are described.

Techniques for power control for dual subscribers

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may initiate a first service, having a first priority during a time interval, associated with a first subscriber identification module (SIM), and a second service, having a second priority during the time interval, associated with a second SIM of the UE, the first priority having a higher priority than the second priority. The UE may identify a first type of communication associated with the second SIM. The UE may adjust, based at least in part on the first type of communication, at least one of the first priority or the second priority during the time interval. The UE may perform a communication in accordance with the adjusted at least one of the first priority or the second priority. Numerous other aspects are described.

Techniques for dual active subscriber transmit sharing

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may initiate a first service associated with a first subscriber identity module (SIM) of the UE and a first priority. The UE may initiate a second service associated with a second SIM of the UE and a second priority. The UE may switch the first priority and the second priority during at least part of the first service or the second service. The UE may perform a communication in accordance with at least one of the first priority or the second priority. Numerous other aspects are described.

Techniques for prioritizing communications for dual subscriber user equipment

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) determine that at least one packet of a set of packets for a downlink message is unsuccessfully received at a radio link control (RLC) layer of the UE due to a specific situation of a set of specific situations and may transmit the NACK message based on the missing packet (s) on an as needed basis rather than waiting for a timer to expire (e.g., a fast NACK mechanism). In some examples, the specific situations may include the UE missing packets after a measurement gap, missing packets based on wake up latencies for a discontinuous reception mode of the UE, missing packets due to interference from reference signals transmitted by neighboring cells, missing packets due to the UE not decoding retransmissions that have a same redundancy version (RV) of a downlink message, or a combination thereof.

Negative acknowledgment transmissions during physical layer issues

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for releasing an RRC connection by a user equipment (UE). A method that may be performed by the UE includes establishing an RRC connection, determining a time duration for a release timer, resetting the release timer, monitoring the RRC connection, and releasing the RRC connection.

Radio resource control (RRC) connection release timer

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may measure a parameter associated with a secondary cell group. The UE may perform an optimization response action for a dual connectivity mode of a first frequency parameter or a second frequency parameter when the parameter satisfies a threshold, wherein the optimization response action is associated with whether the secondary cell group is operating with the first frequency parameter or the second frequency parameter. Numerous other aspects are described.

Techniques for dual connectivity mode optimization

Techniques for wireless communications are described. Control information used to preschedule communication resources may be received and communications may be performed based on the control information using a prescheduling technique. A scheduling type used for the control information may be determined using configuration information, an indication included in the control information, or both. A wireless device that is prescheduled communication resources may not start or not restart an inactivity timer based on the received control information. Also, a wireless device that is prescheduled communication resources may not start a retransmission timer based on the received control information. Additionally, a wireless device that is prescheduled communication resources may also refrain from transmitting a scheduling request based on a duration until a next instance of prescheduled communication resources is expected to occur.

Techniques for scheduling communication resources

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for configuring a device-configured split data threshold for utilizing split data radio bearers (DRBs). A method that may be performed at a user equipment (UE) includes setting a device-configured split data threshold to a value that is less than or equal to a network-configured split data threshold value in response to the network-configured split data threshold value being greater than a first buffer threshold value associated with a data buffer of the UE, monitoring an amount of data in the data buffer, and triggering a first scheduling request (SR) associated with a first communication link and a second SR associated with a second communication link in response to the amount of data in the data buffer being greater than the device-configured split data threshold value.

Split data threshold adjustments in a wireless wide area network (WWAN)

Certain aspects of the present disclosure are generally directed to extended signaling protocols for multi-subscriber identity module (MSIM) user-equipment (UE) for new radio (NR). For example, certain aspects provide a method for wireless communication by a UE. The method generally includes receiving a first message from a network entity enquiring regarding information associated with a multi-subscriber identify module (SIM) capability of the UE, determining the information associated with the multi-SIM capability of the UE in response to the inquiry from the network entity, and communicating one or more messages to indicate the information regarding the multi-SIM capability to the network entity.
