Inter radio access technology measurement with multiple receivers

摘要

A user equipment (UE) with multiple receive chains and one or more subscriber identity modules improves radio access technology (RAT) measurements when one or more of the subscriber identity modules are active and valid measurement gaps or consecutive idle time slots are unavailable for the radio access technology measurements. The UE communicates with a first receive (RX) chain for a first subscriber identity module (SIM). The UE also performs the radio access technology (RAT) measurement with a second receive (RX) chain while maintaining communications with the first receive chain.

主权项

1. A method of wireless communication with a multi receive chain user equipment (UE), comprising:
communicating with a first receive (RX) chain for a first subscriber identity module (SIM); determining whether consecutive idle time slots or valid measurement gaps are unavailable during the communicating with the first RX chain; and performing radio access technology (RAT) measurement with a second receive (RX) chain while maintaining communications with the first RX chain when the consecutive idle time slots or valid measurement gaps are unavailable.
