First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for wireless communications, comprising:
- activating a first module for communicating with a first radio access technology (RAT), while a second module for communicating with a second RAT is de-activated;
registering at least first and second mobile identifiers with the first RAT using the first module;
initiating a call with the first mobile identifier using the first module;
activating the second module; and
registering the second mobile identifier with the second RAT using the second module.

Abstract
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to a method for hardware activation of dual USIM TD-SCDMA multimode mobile terminals. The technique effectively provides for efficient power consumption. In one aspect, a mobile terminal may register dual mobile identifiers on a first radio access technology (RAT) using a first hardware module. If a call is set up, the mobile terminal activates a second hardware module and registers the unused mobile identifier with the second RAT.
