METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR MAINTAINING CALL QUALITY BASED ON INACTIVITY

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for wireless communication including a UE and another UE or a base station. The UE can communicate via a current call communication with a current call quality, where the current call communication can be a RAT. The UE can also determine whether a current call activity is inactive for a time period. Additionally, the UE can maintain the current call quality when the current call activity is inactive for the time period. The UE can also monitor one or more data packets over the current call communication for the time period. Further, the UE can stop downgrading to a lower call quality when the current call activity is inactive for the time period. The UE can also switch the current call communication to a new call communication when the current call activity is inactive for the time period.
