METHOD AND DEVICE FOR POWER MANAGEMENT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM SUPPORTING MULTI-RAT DUAL CONNECTIVITY STATE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18345312 titled 'METHOD AND DEVICE FOR POWER MANAGEMENT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM SUPPORTING MULTI-RAT DUAL CONNECTIVITY STATE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method for managing power in a User Equipment (UE) that is in a multi-rat dual connectivity state. The method involves determining if certain parameters related to uplink data are met when the UE is in the MR-DC state. If the parameters are met, the method compares the value of the connected mode discontinuous reception (CDRX) configuration cycle for the master cell group (MCG) and the CDRX configuration cycle for the secondary cell group (SCG). The UE is in the MR-DC state with both the MCG and SCG. Based on the comparison, the method determines an optimal CDRX configuration cycle among the MCG and SCG and transmits the uplink data to a network entity over either the MCG or SCG based on the optimal CDRX configuration cycle.
- The method manages power in a UE that is in a multi-rat dual connectivity state.
- It determines if certain parameters related to uplink data are met.
- It compares the CDRX configuration cycles for the MCG and SCG.
- It determines an optimal CDRX configuration cycle based on the comparison.
- It transmits uplink data to a network entity over either the MCG or SCG based on the optimal CDRX configuration cycle.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Power management in User Equipment (UE) devices in multi-rat dual connectivity scenarios.
- Optimization of connected mode discontinuous reception (CDRX) configuration cycles for efficient power usage in UE devices.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient power management in UE devices in multi-rat dual connectivity scenarios.
- Optimization of CDRX configuration cycles to reduce power consumption in UE devices.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved power efficiency in UE devices.
- Enhanced battery life in UE devices.
- Better utilization of network resources.
Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed is a method for power management of a User Equipment (UE) in multi-rat dual connectivity state. The method includes determining whether one of a first parameter or a second parameter related with an uplink data is met, when the UE is in the MR-DC state and comparing, when one of the first parameter or the second parameter is met, a value of a connected mode discontinuous reception (CDRX) configuration of a master cell group (MCG) cycle and a value of CDRX configuration cycle for a secondary cell group (SCG) cycle, wherein the UE is in the MR-DC state with the MCG and SCG. The method further includes determining an optimal CDRX configuration cycle among the MCG and the SCG based on a result of the comparison and transmitting the uplink data to a network entity over one of the MCG and SCG based on the optimal CDRX configuration cycle.
