Abstract
Avoiding conflicts between radio access technologies (RATs) in a device configured to operate according to multiple RATs. The device may be operated in a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode according to each of a first RAT and a second RAT using a shared radio. It may be determined that a conflicting wakeup time is scheduled according to DRX cycles of the first and second RATs. A subscriber identity of the device may be changed in response to determining that a conflicting wakeup time is scheduled according to DRX cycles of the first and second RATs.
