Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a connection management in wireless communications. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when a multi-universal subscriber identity module (MUSIM) device switches to a second network from a first network upon receiving a paging from the second network and reverts back to the first network after a scheduling gap ends, the MUSIM device releases a connection with the first network.
Claims17
A method performed by a wireless device in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- registering to a first network and a second network;
- establishing a connection with the first network;
- receiving, from the first network, information for a scheduling gap period;
- upon receiving a paging from the second network, establishing a connection with the second network during the scheduling gap period;
- performing a communication with the second network while the connection with the second network is established;
- releasing the connection with the second network after the communication is completed;
- and
- based on that the scheduling gap period ends before releasing the connection with the second network, releasing the connection with the first network.
A wireless device in a wireless communication system comprising:
- a transceiver;
- a memory;
- and
- at least one processor operatively coupled to the transceiver and the memory, and configured to:
- register to a first network and a second network;
- establish a connection with the first network;
- control the transceiver to receive, from the first network, information for a scheduling gap period;
- upon receiving a paging from the second network, establish a connection with the second network during the scheduling gap period;
- perform a communication with the second network while the connection with the second network is established;
- release the connection with the second network after the communication is completed;
- and
- based on that the scheduling gap period ends before releasing the connection with the second network, release the connection with the first network.
A method performed by a base station (BS) in a first network in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- performing at least part of a procedure for registering a wireless device in the first network and a second network;
- establishing a connection with the wireless device;
- transmitting, to the wireless device, information for a scheduling gap period;
- and
- releasing the connection with the wireless device based on that a communication with the wireless device is not initiated upon an end of the scheduling gap period.
