Abstract

L'invention concerne des techniques de communication sans fil qui comprennent des techniques de récupération de service de réseau à partir de réseaux 5G (SA) anormaux réalisés par des UE à double SIM. Un UE peut ajouter une première station de base à une première liste associée à un premier SIM lorsqu'il est déterminé qu'au moins un élément d'informations reçu en provenance de la première station de base est mal configuré. L'UE peut également mettre à jour une seconde liste associée à un second SIM pour inclure la première station de base sur la base de l'ajout de la première station de base à la première liste. L'UE peut déclencher une procédure d'enregistrement pour le second SIM pour enregistrer l'UE dans un réseau de communication sans fil associé à une seconde station de base sur la base d'au moins l'une de la seconde liste mise à jour ou d'informations associées au second SIM. D'autres aspects et caractéristiques sont également revendiqués et décrits.
