METHODS FOR SCHEDULING COLLIDED PAGING OCCASIONS OF MULTIPLE WIRELESS NETWORKS AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUSES UTILIZING THE SAME
First Claim
1. A communication apparatus transceiving data via a first cell belonging to a first wireless network and a second cell belonging to a second wireless network, comprising:
- a radio transceiver module;
a first subscriber identity card camping on the first cell;
a second subscriber identity card camping on the second cell; and
a processor coupled to the radio transceiver module, the first subscriber identity card and the second subscriber identity card, obtaining information regarding a plurality of first paging occasions distributed within a predetermined time interval for the first subscriber identity card, obtaining information regarding a plurality of second paging occasions distributed within the predetermined time interval for the second subscriber identity card, detecting a forthcoming time slot of the predetermined time interval in which one of the first paging occasions collides with one of the second paging occasions, determining listening to one of the first cell and the second cell in the detected time slot, and notifying of the determination to the radio transceiver module so as to direct the radio transceiver module to listen to the determined cell to receive a corresponding paging message from the determined cell in the detected time slot.

Abstract
A communication apparatus is provided. A first subscriber identity card camps on a first cell. A second subscriber identity card camps on a second cell. A processor obtains information regarding first paging occasions distributed within a predetermined time interval for the first subscriber identity card, obtains information regarding second paging occasions distributed within the predetermined time interval for the second subscriber identity card, detects a forthcoming time slot of the predetermined time interval in which one of the first paging occasions collides with one of the second paging occasions, determines listening to one of the first cell and the second cell in the detected time slot, and notifies of the determination to the radio transceiver module so as to direct the radio transceiver module to listen to the determined cell to receive a corresponding paging message from the determined cell in the detected time slot.

13. A method for handling collided paging occasions a communication apparatus comprising a first subscriber identity card and a second subscriber identity card, the method comprising:
-
camping on a first cell via a radio transceiver module with the first subscriber identity card; obtaining information regarding a plurality of first paging occasions distributed within a predetermined time interval for the first subscriber identity card, wherein a plurality of first paging messages are planned to be broadcasted on the first cell in the first paging occasions; camping on a second cell via the radio transceiver module with the second subscriber identity card; obtaining information regarding a plurality of second paging occasions distributed within the predetermined time interval for the second subscriber identity card, wherein a plurality of second paging messages are planned to be broadcasted on the second cell in the second paging occasions; detecting a forthcoming time slot of the predetermined time interval in which one of the first paging occasions collides with one of the second paging occasions; determining listening to one of the first cell and the second cell in the detected time slot; and notifying of the determination to the radio transceiver module so as to direct the radio transceiver module to listen to the determined cell to receive a corresponding paging message from the determined cell in the detected time slot. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
