Wake-up Signal Monitoring Optimization - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17769391 titled 'Wake-up Signal Monitoring Optimization

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods and apparatus for optimizing power saving performance by adapting wake-up signal monitoring in a UE. Here are the key points explained in bullet form:

  • UE can selectively skip wake-up signal monitoring based on current UE context.
  • Wake-up signal/PDCCH monitoring and other UE procedures can be adapted based on statistics related to wake-up signals transmitted by the base station to the UE.

Original Abstract Submitted

Methods and apparatus are described for adapting wake-up signal monitoring to optimize power saving performance. In one embodiment, a UE can be configured to selectively skip WUS monitoring based on a current UE context. In another embodiment, WUS/PDCCH monitoring and/or other UE procedure can be adapted based on a statistic related to the wake-up signals transmitted by the base station to the UE.
