Discontinuous Reception DRX Parameter Configuration Method and Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17791379 titled 'Discontinuous Reception DRX Parameter Configuration Method and Apparatus

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for configuring a discontinuous reception (DRX) parameter in a communication system. The method involves sending data from a first communication apparatus to a second communication apparatus on a sidelink, based on the DRX parameter. The second communication apparatus determines its active time and sleep period based on the DRX parameter and receives the data during the active time.

  • The method involves configuring a DRX parameter in a communication system.
  • The DRX parameter is used to determine the active time and sleep period of a communication apparatus.
  • Data is sent from a first communication apparatus to a second communication apparatus on a sidelink, based on the DRX parameter.
  • The second communication apparatus receives the data during its active time.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, IoT devices, and vehicle-to-vehicle communication.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient power management: The DRX parameter configuration allows communication apparatuses to enter sleep mode during idle periods, reducing power consumption. 2. Optimal resource utilization: By determining the active time based on the DRX parameter, communication apparatuses can allocate resources effectively, ensuring efficient data transmission.

Benefits

1. Power savings: The DRX parameter configuration enables communication apparatuses to conserve power by entering sleep mode during inactive periods. 2. Improved network efficiency: By optimizing resource allocation based on the DRX parameter, the communication system can achieve better utilization of available resources. 3. Enhanced reliability: The method ensures that data is received during the active time, improving the reliability of communication between apparatuses.


Original Abstract Submitted

A discontinuous reception (DRX) parameter configuration method includes a first communication apparatus that sends data to a second communication apparatus on a sidelink based on a DRX parameter. The second communication apparatus determines an active time and a sleep period of the second communication apparatus based on the DRX parameter, and receives the data in the active time.
