MODE MANAGEMENT FOR NETWORK ENTITY ENERGY SAVINGS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17661233 Titled 'MODE MANAGEMENT FOR NETWORK ENTITY ENERGY SAVINGS'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a technique for wireless communications in a network. It explains a method where a network entity receives an uplink trigger message from a user equipment while in a low-power mode. In this low-power mode, the network entity deactivates synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) and monitors for uplink trigger messages. Based on the received uplink trigger message, the network entity transitions to a higher energy mode where it activates SSBs and continues to monitor for uplink trigger messages.


Original Abstract Submitted

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for wireless communications in a network. A method includes receiving, from a first user equipment, a first uplink trigger message in a receive direction while in a first energy mode, wherein while in the first energy mode, the network entity is configured to: deactivate any synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) in the receive direction; monitor for uplink trigger messages during one or more configured uplink trigger occasions; and transitioning from the first energy mode to a second energy mode based at least in part on the first uplink trigger message, wherein while in the second energy mode, the network entity is configured to: activate one or more SSBs in the receive direction; and monitor for uplink trigger messages during the one or more configured uplink trigger occasions.
