Abstract
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus establishes a first cellular communication link with a first cellular network based on a subscriber identifier, establishes a second cellular communication link with a second cellular network based on the subscriber identifier, and maintains the first cellular communication link concurrently with the second cellular communication link.
Claims20
A method of wireless communication comprising:
- establishing a first cellular communication link, using a first instance of a radio protocol stack of a user equipment (UE), by attaching to a first cellular network managed by a mobile network operator (MNO) based on a subscriber identifier of the UE;
- establishing a second cellular communication link, using a second instance of the radio protocol stack, by attaching to a second cellular network managed by a non-MNO based on the subscriber identifier of the UE;
- and
- maintaining the first cellular communication link concurrently with the second cellular communication link, wherein the first cellular network continues to function as a serving public land mobile network (PLMN) of the UE after establishing of the second cellular communication link.

A method of wireless communication comprising:
- receiving information associated with a user equipment (UE) that comprises a subscriber identifier, the UE attached to a first cellular network managed by a mobile network operator (MNO) via a first cellular communication link using a first instance of a radio protocol stack of the UE;
- establishing a second cellular communication link with the UE, using a second instance of the radio protocol stack of the UE, by attaching to a second cellular network managed by a non-MNO based at least on the received information;
- and
- maintaining the second cellular communication link while the UE is in communication with the first cellular network via the first cellular communication link,
- wherein the information associated with the UE is received from a home subscriber server (HSS) of the first cellular network through a Wx interface, wherein the information associated with the UE is received at an offload authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA)/mobility management entity (MME) server, and
- wherein the first cellular network continues to function as a serving public land mobile network (PLMN) of the UE after establishing of the second cellular communication link.
