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

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses for enabling collision mitigation for a user equipment (UE) operating in a dual active mode. In some aspects, the UE may generate a communication for a first subscription in a first time window associated with a first priority for a time domain division pattern with a second subscription. The UE may transmit, using the first subscription, the communication in a second time window associated with a second priority for the time domain division pattern. For example, the second time window associated with the second priority may be a time window in which traffic for the first subscription is prioritized. In some aspects, the UE may select modified periodic intervals for transmissions of a communication to mitigate collisions associated with the time domain division pattern. For example, a transmission time of the periodic communication may be varied (or randomized) over time.

Collision mitigation for a dual subscriber identity module (SIM) dual active (DSDA) user equipment

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

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may establish, using a first subscription of the UE, a first communication connection associated with a first service. The UE may establish, using a second subscription of the UE, a second communication connection associated with a second service. The UE may operate in a dual subscriber identity module (SIM) dual active (DSDA) mode based at least in part on establishing the first communication connection and establishing the second communication connection. The UE may perform an action to maintain concurrent services, including the first service and the second service, while operating in the DSDA mode. Numerous other aspects are described.

Maintaining concurrent services in a dual active mode

Aspects described herein relate to configuring a primary component carrier (PCC) and at least one secondary component carrier (SCC) for transmitting uplink communications to one or more nodes of a wireless network using carrier aggregation (CA) in a first subscription of the UE, and transmitting, to at least one of the one or more nodes, a manipulated power headroom report for the at least one SCC based on a migration from an idle state to an active state in a second subscription of the UE.

Techniques for reducing resource usage for dual subscription dual active wireless communications

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may detect that a first subscription, of a plurality of subscriptions associated with the UE, is associated with an active service on a first cellular network. The UE may search, for a second subscription of the plurality of subscriptions, for radio access technologies (RATs) and frequency bands that are compatible with a dual active mode of the UE. In some aspects, the UE may detect that the active service on the first cellular network has ended. Accordingly, the UE may search, for the second subscription, for RATs and frequency bands that are compatible with the dual active mode of the UE and for RATs and frequency bands that are incompatible with the dual active mode, before expiry of a timer associated with a power saving state. Numerous other aspects are described.

Radio access technology searching in dual active mode

The present disclosure relates to methods, devices and software that can be used for preventing damage to RF front end equipment used in wireless communication systems. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may establish a first communication having a first priority, wherein the first communication is associated with a first subscriber in a connected mode. The UE may establish a second communication having a second priority, wherein the second communication is associated with a second subscriber in the connected mode. The UE may identify a state of a transmit/receive (TRX) switch shared between the first communication and the second communication. The UE may perform, based at least in part on the state of the TRX switch, at least one of the first communication or the second communication using a TRX switching configuration.

Techniques for protecting radio frequency front-end components

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may obtain one or more parameters associated with a dual subscriber operation of the UE that includes communicating using a first subscriber entity and a second subscriber entity. The UE may transmit one or more uplink communications via one or more of the first subscriber entity or the second subscriber entity using a coexistence management configuration that is based at least in part on the one or more parameters. Numerous other aspects are described.

Dual subscriber coexistence management

A user equipment (UE) configured for dual connectivity with a split bearer configuration may transmit uplink data packets to one or both a master cell group (MCG) and a secondary cell group (SCG). The UE may transmit an uplink transmission from a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity over one or both of a first radio link control (RLC) entity associated with the MCG and a second RLC entity associated with the SCG. The configuration including a transmit buffer threshold. The UE may receive, at the PDCP entity, an uplink switch start indication. The UE may activate the second RLC entity in response to receiving the uplink switch start indication. The UE may transmit a buffer status report according to a current transmit buffer level plus the transmit buffer threshold. Accordingly, the UE may communicate with the SCG based on the uplink switch start indication.

Method and apparatus to switch uplink transmission on uplink split bearer

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.
