WAKE-UP SIGNAL TRAFFIC INDICATION TECHNIQUES FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17898281 titled 'WAKE-UP SIGNAL TRAFFIC INDICATION TECHNIQUES FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS
Simplified Explanation
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a network entity may use a lower power sleep procedure to reduce power consumption, and monitor for a wake-up signal (WUS) from at least one user equipment (UE) during configured WUS occasions. The WUS from one or more UEs may provide information of one or more attributes of data traffic that is present at a transmit buffer of the one or more UEs. A WUS configuration may be provided from a network entity that allows the selection of a particular WUS to indicate one or more attributes of the data traffic at the UE. The WUS may convey information such as buffer status, power headroom, a priority of traffic, latency targets of the traffic, or any combinations thereof. The WUS may also give an indication of a requested duration of an active mode at the network entity.
- Lower power sleep procedure to reduce power consumption
- Monitoring for wake-up signals from UEs during configured occasions
- Wake-up signals provide information about data traffic attributes

- Mobile networks
Problems Solved
- Power consumption optimization
- Efficient data traffic management
- Enhanced network performance
Benefits
- Reduced power consumption
- Improved network efficiency
- Enhanced data traffic monitoring and management
