Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may switch the set of antennas that the UE uses to transmit sounding reference signal (SRS) transmissions. For example, the UE may switch from transmitting first SRSs that conflict with a scheduled communication from a first set of antennas to a second set of antennas (e.g., that is, the conflict may be at the first set of antennas). The UE may be transmitting second SRSs using the second set of antennas, and the switching may cause the UE to transmit the second SRSs using the first set of antennas instead. The second SRSs may not conflict with the scheduled communication (e.g., due to using different resources than the first SRSs), which may enable the UE to transmit the second SRSs and the scheduled communication using the same first set of antennas.

Enhancing throughput performance in multi-sim modems

A user equipment (UE) includes: a first subscriber identity module (SIM) associated with a first service provider subscription and a second SIM associated with a second service provider subscription; the US is configured to operate the first service provider subscription in an active-mode and operating the second service provider subscription in an idle mode; and the UE is further configured to signal a changing quantity of multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) layers available to the first service provider subscription in response to radio frequency (RF) resource sharing with the second service provider subscription for a paging operation of the second service provider subscription.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a grant indicating a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) that indicates that the grant is for a retransmission of an initial communication. The UE may decode, based at least in part on the grant indicating the MCS that indicates that the grant is for the retransmission and using a transport block size (TBS) of a prior communication, a communication scheduled by the grant, wherein the prior communication is prior to the initial communication. Numerous other aspects are described.

Transport block size determination for retransmission

Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for providing notifications in a communication network of a plurality of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. In an aspect, a supervisor device in the communication network detects a notification directed to a wireless mobile device in the communication network and sends at least one instruction to at least a first IoT device of the plurality of IoT devices to reduce an operating volume or suspend operation of the first IoT device. The first IoT device receives the at least one instruction from the supervisor device and reduces the operating volume of the IoT device or suspends the operation of the IoT device in response to the at least one instruction.

Smart notifications between devices

An apparatus may communicate with at least two networks. The apparatus may be configured to opportunistically decode a channel from a first network and a channel from a second network in order to receive data from both networks. The apparatus may determine whether first data carried on a paging channel (PCH) is decodable from a subset of slots that carry the PCH. The subset of slots may be included in a set of slots that carry the PCH. When the PCH collides with a physical multicast channel (PMCH), the apparatus may decode second data carried on the PMCH instead of the first data when the first data is determined to be decodable from the subset of slots that carry the PCH, and decode the first data instead of the second data when the first data is not determined to be decodable from the subset of slots that carry the PCH.

System and method for decoding data carried on colliding channels

The present disclosure presents a method and an apparatus for searching for service when a multi-mode UE goes out of service (OOS). For example, the disclosure presents a method for receiving a request to scan frequencies of a RPLMN of a first RAT and scanning the frequencies of the first RAT based on an acquisition database (ACQ DB). In addition, such an example method, may include sending an available PLMN list to the NAS layer, switching to a second RAT based on a request from the NAS layer, scanning frequencies of the second RAT based on the ACQ DB, and camping on a frequency of the second RAT found during the scanning of the frequencies of the second RAT based on the ACQ DB. As such, a method and an apparatus for searching for service when a multi-mode UE goes OOS may be achieved.
