Title:
REAL-TIME LIGHTWEIGHT NAT KEEP-ALIVE INTERVAL OPTIMIZATION FOR MULTI-SIM MOBILE DEVICES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/035010
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method includes setting, using at least one processor of an electronic device that includes multiple subscriber identity module (SIM) cards, a maximum Network Address Translation (NAT) interval to be a maximum value among NAT keep-alive intervals associated with the multiple SIM cards. The method also includes triggering, using the at least one processor, a partial call setup from a first SIM card of the multiple SIM cards to a second SIM card of the multiple SIM cards. The method further includes determining, using the at least one processor, whether the electronic device receives the partial call setup. In addition, the method includes, in response to determining that the electronic device receives the partial call setup, setting, using the at least one processor, the NAT keep-alive interval for each of the multiple SIM cards to be equal to the maximum NAT interval.
