Methods and apparatus for receiver only tune away in multi-SIM devices

摘要

Methods and apparatus for wireless communication are provided. In one aspect, an apparatus for wireless communication comprises a transmitter configured to transmit data at a first frequency on a first radio access technology. The apparatus comprises a receiver configured to receive data at the first frequency on the first radio access technology. The apparatus comprises a processor configured to tune the transmitter to the first frequency associated with the first radio access technology. The processor is configured to tune the receiver from the first frequency to a second frequency associated with a second radio access technology while the transmitter remains tuned to the first frequency associated with the first radio access technology. The processor is further configured erase data to be transmitted for the first radio access technology from at least one transmission channel slot when the first frequency and the second frequency satisfy a predetermined combination of frequencies.

1. An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
a transmitter configured to transmit data at a first frequency on a first radio access technology; a receiver configured to receive data at the first frequency on the first radio access technology; a processor configured to:
tune the transmitter to the first frequency associated with the first radio access technology,tune the receiver from the first frequency to a second frequency associated with a second radio access technology while the transmitter remains tuned to the first frequency associated with the first radio access technology, andcause the transmitter to not transmit data for the first radio access technology queued in at least one transmission channel slot based on a condition that transmitting the queued data at the first frequency would cause interference to received data at the second frequency; and a first phase lock loop associated with the transmitter and a second phase locked loop associated with the receiver, wherein tuning the transmitter comprises tuning the first phase locked loop to the first frequency and tuning the receiver comprises tuning the second phase locked loop from the first frequency to the second frequency.
