Abstract: Systems and methods provide secondary cell group (SCG) activation and deactivation. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless network may determine bandwidth part (BWP) configurations for a carrier of a primary secondary cell (PSCell) of an SCG for dual connectivity (DC). The UE may move between an SCG activation state and an SCG deactivation state based on the BWP configurations. SCG deactivation modeling may be based on a separate BWP configuration or may be modeled via a separate configuration in radio resource control (RRC) that is applicable to the BWPs in a serving cell.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to managing access to 5G cellular baseband resources for 5G-capable wireless devices. A wireless device can monitor application workloads by analyzing communication network performance requirements for a given application in-use or launching for future use along with system-level indications of overall device usage, battery level, and mobility status to determine whether access to 5G cellular baseband resources is recommended for an application. A 5G cellular baseband resource recommendation is provided for an application indicating a level of bandwidth in current use or expected for future use as well as a confidence metric in the bandwidth level indication. The 5G cellular baseband resource recommendation is used with additional device criteria to determine whether access to one or more 5G radio frequency bands is allowed.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods to support parallel access to services of multiple subscriber identity modules (SIMs) and/or electronic SIMs (eSIMs) by a wireless device are disclosed. The wireless device is a single-radio wireless device that includes wireless circuitry that supports an active voice or video connection via a single radio access network of a cellular wireless network at a time. To send or receive data for a second SIM/eSIM, when an active voice or video connection for a first SIM/eSIM uses the wireless circuitry, the single-radio wireless device can i) establish parallel, linked protocol data unit (PDU) sessions for different SIMs, ii) multiplex traffic for different SIMs over a common radio connection with SIM information embedded in protocol headers for routing by network equipment, and/or iii) use an additional dedicated bearer using a first, active SIM for each data network name (DNN) over which to route for a second, suspended SIM..

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for application awareness interworking between cellular systems. A wireless device may be configured to initiate an application during an ongoing procedure serviced by a first operating according to a first radio access technology (RAT), receive, from a first cellular system, an indication to switch to a second cellular system operating according to a second RAT, and delay the switch to the second cellular system until completion of the ongoing procedure. A network function may be configured to detect initiation of an application during an ongoing procedure serviced by a cellular system operating according to a first RAT, the application having associated application preferences, determine that the associated application preferences indicate a switch to a second cellular system operating according to a second RAT, and delay the switch to the second cellular system until completion of the ongoing procedure.

Abstract: A method for a wireless UE device to utilize tokens and cloud service technology to facilitate the provision of location data to an emergency call center. The UE may provide cellular signaling to initiate an outgoing telephone call to an emergency call center. A token may be provided during the signaling, wherein the token is associated with location information of the UE device stored on a server computer (referred to as a cloud server or location server). The token may uniquely identify the UE device and/or a user cloud service account of the UE device. The call center may use the token to retrieve location information of the UE from the cloud server. The use of the token may also provide for enhanced security, e.g., to prevent spoofing of the UE phone number.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) indicates to a network the types of SMS messages that the UE does not support. The network receives an indication from the UE corresponding to one or more types of short message service (SMS) messages that are supported by the UE, receives a SMS that is intended to be delivered to the UE, determines whether to forward the SMS message to the UE based on the indication received from the UE, when the SMS message is a type of SMS message supported by the UE, forwards the SMS message to the UE and, when the SMS message is not a type of SMS message supported by the UE, discards the SMS message.
