Abstract

A first user equipment (UE) that is initially coupled to a second UE and a base station enters an out-of-service (OOS) state upon losing its wireless connection to a service via the base station. The first UE attempts to reestablish the connection while sending OOS recovery parameters to the second UE. The second UE does not automatically scan for service if a signal strength of its connection to the first UE is above a predetermined threshold level. In response to losing its connection to the first UE or determining that the signal strength of its connection to the first UE is less than the predetermined threshold level, the second UE activates one or more corresponding modems and executes OOS recovery protocols based on the OOS recovery parameters received from the first UE to attempt to regain service.
