ENHANCED COORDINATION OF COMMUNICATION ON LINKS FOR MULTIPLE SUBSCRIBER IDENTIFICATION MODULES (SIMS)

Aspects of the present disclosure present techniques for coordination between a user equipment (UE) and one or more network entities to allow necessary interruptions on a first link associated with a first subscriber identification module (SIM) of the UE in order to establish or use a second link associated with a second SIM of the UE. A UE may include two or more SIMs, such as, for example, when offering Dual-SIM-Dual-Active (DSDA) functionalities. The UE may be limited by a single receiving chain, disregarding the multiple SIMs carried therein. The present disclosure alleviates or removes such limitations by coordinating between the UE and one or more network entities to optimize the use of the multiple SIMs.
