US 10,764,957 B2 · Method and UE for optimizing resources of wireless communication network while providing 5G services

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. Embodiments herein provide a method and UE for optimizing resources of wireless communication network while providing 5G services.

Dependent claims

A method for processing resources of a wireless communication network in a user equipment (UE) while providing fifth generation (5G) services, comprising:

registering a first subscriber identity module (SIM) of the UE to a 5G radio access technology (RAT);
registering a second SIM to at least one of the 5G RAT and a fourth generation (4G) RAT;
detecting an event associated with one of the first SIM and the second SIM;
when the UE operates with at least two transceivers and the first SIM and the second SIM occupy a first transceiver among the at least two transceivers, managing an operation of the first transceiver associated with the second SIM based on the event associated with the first SIM;
and
in case thatwhen the UE has operates with a single transceiver, suspending a downlink data connectivity associated with the first SIM based on the event associated with the second SIM.
