Abstract

Apparatus and methods to support parallel communication using multiple subscriber identities in a wireless communication device via multiple subscriber identity modules (SIMs) are disclosed. A representative method includes establishing a connection with a first wireless network via a first wireless cellular protocol software stack for a first subscriber identity associated with a first subscriber identity module; registering with a second wireless network via a second wireless cellular protocol software stack for a second subscriber identity associated with a second subscriber identity module; and receiving radio frequency signals from the second wireless network via the second wireless cellular protocol software stack in parallel with communicating with the first wireless network via the first wireless cellular protocol software stack. The first and second wireless cellular protocol software stacks share at least a portion of radio frequency wireless circuitry for communicating with the first and second wireless network respectively.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments described in the present disclosure relate generally to wireless communications, and more particularly to methods and devices for supporting concurrent communications of multiple user identities in a wireless communications device. Background technique [0002] Fourth generation (4G) cellular networks employing newer radio access technology systems implementing the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE) and LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) standards are rapidly evolving and are Traditional second generation (2G) and third generation (3G) wireless networks are deployed in parallel by network operators. A wireless communication device may have (e.g., based on what wireless networks are available in a particular location, based on the capabilities of available wireless networks, based on the capabilities of the wireless communication device, based on the characteristics of a particular service provided by the wireless network,...
