Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) are described. A UE may establish a wireless connection with a primary cell and may identify a set of antenna modules of the UE and multiple sets of receive beams. Each set of receive beams may include at least one beam from each antenna module. The UE may perform a measurement procedure on signals received from one or more candidate secondary cells using at least a first set of receive beams. The UE may then transmit, to the primary cell, a measurement report based on performing the measurement procedure upon determining that at least one of the multiple sets of receive beams satisfies a threshold value and before performing the measurement procedure on signals received from the one or more candidate secondary cells using at least one remaining set of receive beams.

A device may receive threshold data identifying threshold ranges, and may receive, from a first access point of multiple access points, first network data identifying first quality measurement indicators associated with a first link. The device may determine whether a first quality of the first link is good, fair, or poor based on comparing the first network data and the threshold data, and may provide, to the first access point and when the first quality is determined to be poor, a request for second network data identifying second quality measurement indicators associated with multiple links between the device and the multiple access points. The device may receive, from the first access point, the second network data, and may select one of the multiple access points based on the second network data. The device may utilize a link associated with the one of the multiple access points to receive video data.

The present invention discloses methods and systems for transferring SIM card information from a first device to a server. A first SIM card is housed in the first device or in a first modem connected to the first device. When the first device boots up, it identifies the first SIM card and retrieves SIM card information from the first SIM card. The first device then sends authentication information to the first server and requests historical SIM card activity information. Historical SIM card activity information received from the first server is stored in a storage medium, and is used for determining whether to use the first SIM card. The first server performs steps of receiving a first request message from the first device, and determining the SIM card identity specified in the first request message if the first request message is authentic. The first server retrieves and sends historical SIM card activity information of the first SIM card to the first device.

Various solutions for handling of paging context with respect to user equipment (UE) in mobile communications are described. A UE may receive a paging message with a system information modification and a redistribution indication. The UE may start a timer and perform a first inter-frequency redistribution procedure according to a first set of system information block (SIB) parameters. The UE may further receive a second set of SIB parameters before the timer is expired. The UE may perform the first inter-frequency redistribution procedure according to the second set of SIB parameters after receiving the second set of SIB parameters.

This application provides example methods, systems, and devices for performing charging on a network resource. One example method includes sending, by a network slice charging function device, a first message to a network slice management function device, where the first message includes an identifier of a network slice instance and filtering information, the filtering information indicates the network slice management function device to send a value that is of a network slice performance indicator of the network slice instance and that matches the filtering information, and the network slice performance indicator describes network performance of the network slice instance. The network slice charging function device can then receive a second message from the network slice management function device, where the second message includes the value. The network slice charging function device can then perform charging on the network slice instance based on the value.

Disclosed are a measuring method, a base station, and a terminal. The method comprises: a base station transmits to a terminal a switching message of a narrow bandwidth receiving mode, thus instructing the terminal to switch to a specified narrow bandwidth to receive information; when channel state information (CSI) of a downlink channel needs to be measured, the base station schedules the terminal to switch sequentially to at least two different measuring narrow bandwidths to measure a downlink reference signal, where the width of the narrow bandwidth and that of the at least two different measuring narrow bandwidths are less than the width of a system bandwidth. The employment of embodiments of the present invention allows the terminal to flexibly switch between the narrow bandwidth and the system bandwidth, reduces power consumption of the terminal, and implements the measurement of the CSI of the downlink channel at the same time.
