Abstract

Methods and apparatuses for managing one or more radio resources of a multi-subscriber identity module user equipment (UE) are presented. For example, one such method presented by the disclosure may include determining that a wake-up cycle collision condition exists between a first subscription and a second subscription of the UE when the first subscription and second subscription are camped on a same cell. In addition, the example method may include receiving, via a first radio resource of the UE associated with the first subscription, a paging message during a paging block of the cell, wherein a second radio resource of the UE associated with the second subscription is unavailable. Furthermore, the example methodology may include determining, by the first subscription, that the paging message indicates that a page exists for the second subscription and informing the second subscription that the page exists.
