Multiple subscription resource access control

摘要

The various embodiments include methods for managing how a MSMS communication device that is accessing an arbitrary combination of multiple telephony networks processes paging collisions. The embodiment methods promote improving a subscription's page blocking rate by causing a MSMS communication device to implement a retransmission remedial action for a blocked subscription. In the various embodiments, the MSMS communication device may implement the retransmission remedial action by increasing a blocked subscription's priority during a subsequent retransmission interval to increase the likelihood that the blocked subscription will receive a repeated page message from its mobile network during this retransmission interval. In some embodiments, the blocked subscription's current priority may be based on the number of retransmission intervals that are presently occurring.

主权项

1. A method of implementing a retransmission remedial action for a blocked subscription operating on a multi-SIM-multi-standby communication device, comprising:
receiving a paging message for a subscription; detecting a paging collision between the subscription and at least one competing subscription; determining a priority of the subscription; determining a priority of the at least one competing subscription; determining whether the priority of the subscription is greater than or equal to the priority of the at least one competing subscription; implementing the retransmission remedial action for the subscription in response to determining that the priority of the subscription is less than the priority of the at least one competing subscription; receiving the paging message for the subscription in response to determining that the priority of the subscription is greater than or equal to the priority of the at least one competing subscription; monitoring for a next priority event for the subscription; determining whether the next priority event has been reached; determining whether the next priority event is the beginning of a retransmission interval in response to determining that the next priority event has been reached; decreasing the priority of the subscription in response to determining that the next priority event is not the be beginning of a retransmission interval; and increasing the priority of the subscription in response to determining that the next priority event is the beginning of a retransmission interval.
