Abstract
A component of a cellular user equipment (UE) device is configured to detect adverse radio link conditions. The component monitors a plurality of layers of a communication stack of the UE device during an active voice call. Responsive to monitoring the plurality of layers, the component detects at least one adverse radio link condition associated with the active voice call. The component provides a radio link degradation indication to a second component of the UE device in response to detecting the at least one adverse radio link condition.
Claims23
A method at a first component of a cellular user equipment (UE) device for detecting adverse radio link conditions, the method comprising:
- monitoring a plurality of layers of a communication stack of the UE device during an active voice call;
- responsive to monitoring the plurality of layers, detecting at least one adverse radio link condition associated with the active voice call;
- and
- providing a radio link degradation (RLD) indication to a second component of the UE device in response to detecting the at least one adverse radio link condition.
A user equipment device, comprising:
- one or more radio frequency (RF) modems configured to wirelessly communicate with at least one network;
- one or more processors coupled to the one or more RF modems;
- and
- at least one memory storing executable instructions, the executable instructions configured to manipulate at least one of the one or more processors or the one or more RF modems to:
- monitor a plurality of layers of a communication stack of the UE device during an active voice call;
- responsive to monitoring the plurality of layers, detect at least one adverse radio link condition associated with the active voice call;
- and
- provide a radio link degradation (RLD) indication to a second component of the UE device in response to detecting the at least one adverse radio link condition.
(canceled)
A user equipment (UE) comprising:
- a communication processor to detect at least one adverse radio link condition associated with an active voice call;
- and
- an application processor to receive a radio link degradation indication in response to the communication processor detecting the at least one adverse radio link condition.
