CQI-based downlink buffer management

Abstract:

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for channel quality indicator (CQI)-based downlink buffer management as well as mitigating throughput loss in dual connectivity with multi-SIM. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes communicating with a first network on a first channel using a first technology, determining whether a tune-away associated with the first technology will occur, and outputting, for transmission to the first network on a second channel using a second technology, a channel quality indicator (CQI) report corresponding to the second channel if the tune-away will occur, wherein the CQI report indicates a lower CQI for the second channel than a current CQI for the second channel.
