Abstract
A user equipment (UE) can establish a first connection using a first radio access technology (RAT), wherein the UE operates in a communication mode having one or more dormant periods with respect to the first connection. The UE can receive a data packet over a second connection using a second RAT, wherein the data packet is from a data flow which is allowed or configured to be delivered via the first connection and the second connection. It can be determined that the data packet is received over the second connection when the UE is operating in a dormant period of the one or more dormant periods with respect to the first connection. A termination of the dormant period over the first connection can be requested based at least in part on determining that the data packet is received when the UE is operating in the dormant period.
