METHOD TO ACCELERATE MANUAL PUBLIC LAND MOBILE NETWORK SEARCH IN DUAL-SIM DUAL-ACTIVE DEVICES

摘要

A method for public land mobile network (PLMN) search on a mobile communication device includes: initiating a PLMN search for a first plurality of radio access technologies (RATs) associated with a first subscription; determining whether one or more of the first plurality of RATs associated with the first subscription are also associated with a second subscription; and performing a PLMN search for the one or more of the first plurality of RATs that are also associated with the second subscription using an RF chain associated with the second subscription.
