Multi-sim based shared synchronization in wireless networks

Abstract

A multiple subscriber identity module (multi-SIM) compliant user equipment (UE), comprising: a first SIM; a second SIM which is different than the first SIM; a transceiver configured to receive a synchronization signal block (SSB) associated with a first network, based on information of the first SIM; the transceiver configured to perform initial access and to establish a connection with the first network; the transceiver configured to transmit a data signal for processing by a second network, wherein the signal is transmitted based on the established connection with the first network; wherein communication with the first network and the second network is based on an overlap in an initial network handshake with the first network and the second network. In embodiments, the UE does not monitor for an SSB on the second network.
