Collision elimination through forced reselection of cells in multi-SIM mobile devices

摘要

The various embodiments provide methods for implementing a forced reselection strategy after causing colliding subscriptions to perform reselection to neighboring cells. In various embodiments, the MSMS communication device may undo the effects of forced reselection in certain situations when continuing to employ forced reselection may be ineffective. In other embodiments, the MSMS communication device may force reselecting subscriptions to reselect to neighboring cells in a paging group based on the page timings of the neighboring cells. Thus, the various embodiments may increase the performance of the colliding subscriptions and may enhance the user's overall experience.

主权项

1. A method of managing forced reselections for multiple colliding subscriptions on a multi-SIM-multi-standby communication device comprising a plurality of subscriptions, comprising:
initially setting a reselection counter for each of the plurality of subscriptions; determining whether the reselection counter for a reselecting subscription in the multiple colliding subscriptions is greater than a reselection threshold when persistent collisions are detected among the multiple colliding subscriptions; forcing the reselecting subscription to perform reselection to a neighboring cell in response to determining that the reselection counter for the reselecting subscription is not greater than the reselection threshold; incrementing the reselection counter of the reselecting subscription after forcing the reselecting subscription to perform reselection; and implementing a forced reselection strategy after forcing the reselecting subscription to perform reselection.
