Abstract
A user equipment (UE) avoids entering a limited service state when the UE enters a weak coverage area where a communication service outage occurs with respect to a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second RAT. In one instance, the UE remains on the first RAT during the communication service outage, based on a location of the UE by preventing switching from the first RAT to a second RAT.
Claims20
A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- remaining on a first radio access technology (RAT) during a service outage, based at least in part on a location of a user equipment (UE) by preventing switching from the first RAT to a second RAT.
A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- attempting to access a second radio access technology (RAT) when a first RAT is in a service outage;
- and
- preventing the attempting to access a third RAT when the attempting to access the second RAT fails.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured:
- to remain on a first radio access technology (RAT) during a service outage, based at least in part on a location of a user equipment (UE) by preventing switching from the first RAT to a second RAT.
