Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices and computer readable media for communication. A method of communication comprises receiving, at a terminal device and from a network device of a communication network, a configuration comprising a pattern of a gap and a RRC reconfiguration to be applied during the gap for reduction of a capability of the terminal device to communicate with the communication network; and applying the RRC reconfiguration upon a start of the gap. Thereby, the capability of the terminal device can be flexibly coordinated, and thus services at networks of USIMs can be performed in a more flexible and efficient way.
