Some wireless communications systems may transition between a real-time texting (RTT) mode and a text teletypewriter (TTY) mode and vice versa, on a user equipment (UE). A UE may make a determine to transition between two texting modes while coordinating the transfer of text data between the different modes. Some wireless communications systems may also transition a UE between a packet switched network and a circuit switched network without loss of signal and consistent text data delivery during the communication without losing the text data during the transition between the two coverage areas. Transitioning between modes and networks may provide a user with interoperability and the benefit of conveniently switching between two modes without service interruption. | 2020-06-11 |
20200187079 | WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE, WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, WIRELESS COMMUNICATION METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT - According to an embodiment, a wireless communication device includes a memory and one or more hardware processors coupled to the memory. The one or more hardware processors are configured to function as a communication control unit and a determination unit. The communication control unit transmits and receives data to and from a first wireless communication device. The determination unit calculates transmission and reception information based on a transmission and reception result of the data, and variation of received signal intensity of the data, and determines whether to maintain connection to the first wireless device based on the transmission and reception information and the variation. The communication control unit controls communication according to a determination result of the determination unit. | 2020-06-11 |
20200187080 | METHOD FOR SWITCHING IMS VOICE CALL NETWORK, STORAGE DEVICE, AND MOBILE TERMINAL - A method for switching an IMS voice call network includes: identifying a call network which is currently used by a mobile terminal when an IMS voice call is executed by the mobile terminal; switching a VoLTE network which is currently used by the mobile terminal to a VoWiFi network when the call network is the VoLTE network, a use time of the VoLTE network is greater than a timeout time, and a signal intensity of the VoWiFi network reaches a preset first signal threshold value; and switching the VoWiFi network which is currently used by the mobile terminal to the VoLTE network when the call network is the VoWiFi network and a signal intensity of the VoLTE network reaches a preset second signal threshold value. A storage device and a mobile terminal are also provided. | 2020-06-11 |
