Application: Multi-sim scheduling gaps (Patent ID: US20240215101A1)
The patent filed by Apple Inc. describes a system where a user equipment (UE) can maintain a radio resource control (RRC) CONNECTED state on one network while being in an RRC INACTIVE or RRC IDLE state on another network using different subscriber identification modules (SIMs). The UE can request a scheduling gap (SG) configuration from the first network to avoid resource scheduling during the SG duration, allowing the UE to switch to the second network for operations and return to the first network after the SG ends, all while maintaining the RRC CONNECTED state.
The processor of the UE can perform various operations, including receiving configurations for a set of SGs, selecting SGs based on operations on the second network, transmitting requests and indications to activate selected SGs, and managing timer configurations to avoid unnecessary SG requests. The SG configuration includes parameters like SG type, timing advance, and length, with options for periodic or aperiodic SGs. The system also involves communication between the UE, first network, and second network to ensure seamless transitions and efficient resource management.
