METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR SCHEDULING PAGING MONITORING INTERVALS IN TD-SCDMA MULTIMODE TERMINAL

摘要

Certain aspects of the present disclosure propose techniques for scheduling paging intervals in a multimode terminal (MMT) whenever a paging interval conflict between two different networks occurs. Certain aspects provide a method for communicating, by an MMT, with first and second networks via first and second radio access technologies (RATs), such as Time Division Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA) and Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) 1xRTT (Radio Transmission Technology), Evolution-Data Optimized (EVDO), or Wideband CDMA (WCDMA). The method generally includes determining that an overlap will occur between a first paging interval of the first network and a second paging interval of the second network, selecting between the first and second paging intervals based on at least one parameter associated with the first and second paging intervals, and detecting a message associated with paging based on the selected paging interval.
