Wireless terminals with multiple subscriber indentity modules

An apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory storing computer program code that, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the apparatus at least to
• receive, from a first subscriber identity module hosted by a wireless terminal, paging assistance information associated with a second subscriber module hosted by the wireless terminal, wherein said paging assistance information comprises information to be used to determine whether to page the second subscriber identity module when the first subscriber identity module is in connected mode and the second subscriber identity module is in idle mode;
• determine, based on said paging assistance information and a paging message to be transmitted, whether to page the second subscriber identity module or not when the first subscriber identity module is in connected mode and the second subscriber identity module is in idle mode;
• and
• transmit the paging message to the second subscriber identity module in accordance with said paging assistance information when the first subscriber identity module is in connected mode and the second subscriber identity module is in idle mode.

A method, comprising:

• receiving from a first subscriber identity module hosted by a wireless terminal, by a core network node serving a second subscriber identity module hosted by the wireless terminal, paging assistance information associated with the second subscriber module, wherein said paging assistance information comprises information to be used to determine whether to page the second subscriber identity module when the first subscriber identity module is in connected mode and the second subscriber identity module is in idle mode;
• determining, based on said paging assistance information and a paging message to be transmitted, whether to page the second subscriber identity module or not when the first subscriber identity module is in connected mode and the second subscriber identity module is in idle mode;
• and
• transmitting the paging message to the second subscriber identity module in accordance with said paging assistance information when the first subscriber identity module is in connected mode and the second subscriber identity module is in idle mode.
