TECHNIQUES FOR CONFIGURING CONTROL CHANNEL MONITORING SKIP DURATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17818550 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR CONFIGURING CONTROL CHANNEL MONITORING SKIP DURATIONS
Simplified Explanation
Abstract Explanation
The abstract of this patent application describes a wireless communication system where a user equipment (UE) can receive information about different sets of control channel monitoring skip durations. The UE can also receive information about a specific control channel monitoring skip duration. Based on this information, the UE can choose to not monitor a control channel during a specific time period associated with the control channel monitoring skip duration.
- The patent application is related to wireless communication.
- It describes a system where a UE can receive information about different sets of control channel monitoring skip durations.
- The UE can also receive information about a specific control channel monitoring skip duration.
- Based on this information, the UE can choose to not monitor a control channel during a specific time period associated with the control channel monitoring skip duration.

Original Abstract Submitted
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a selection of a set of control channel monitoring skip durations, of multiple candidate sets of control channel monitoring skip durations. The UE may receive an indication of a control channel monitoring skip duration of the set of control channel monitoring skip durations. The UE may refrain from monitoring a control channel during a time period associated with the control channel monitoring skip duration. Numerous other aspects are described.
