Problems solved by technology

However, the aforementioned approach is less than ideal in terms of call setup time, since devices that "camp on" a data-only (eg, LTE) interface will need to switch to a voice-enabled technology before establishing a voice call, adding latency and Degrade the overall user experience of the device
[0006] Furthermore, those of ordinary skill in the relevant arts will recognize that overall power consumption can have a significant impact on the user experience of mobile device consumers

Embodiment Construction

[0027] Referring now to the drawings, wherein like numerals represent like parts throughout.

[0028] overview :

[0029] This patent discloses methods and apparatus for intelligently selecting and operating one or more air interfaces (also referred to as radio access technologies or RATs) of a mobile wireless device, such as for, e.g., power optimization and / or Enhanced call setup. In one embodiment, the operation of the high-speed cellular data interface is selectively adjusted or disabled when not needed in order to minimize power consumption within the device without adversely affecting the user experience. In one embodiment, the wireless device includes an LTE / LTE-A high-speed cellular interface, a low-speed 2G or 3G cellular interface, and a WLAN (eg, Wi-Fi) interface. Depending on the condition of the WLAN interface and other operational considerations (such as device display mode), the high-speed interface is selectively disabled when its capabilities are not neede...

Abstract

Methods and apparatus for intelligently selecting and operating one or more air interfaces of a mobile wireless device for e.g., call setup time reduction. In one embodiment, operation of a high speed cellular interface is selectively adjusted or disabled or switched out when not required so as to minimize call setup times by, e.g., using a different cellular interface to receive pages. In one implementation, the wireless device includes a high-speed cellular interface, a lower-speed cellular interface, and a WLAN (e.g., Wi-Fi) interface.
