TECHNIQUES FOR AUTONOMOUS ACTIVATION OF A DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION CONFIGURATION PER NETWORK ENERGY SAVING MODE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18147655 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR AUTONOMOUS ACTIVATION OF A DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION CONFIGURATION PER NETWORK ENERGY SAVING MODE

The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on energy-saving modes and discontinuous reception configurations.

  • User equipment (UE) receives a message mapping multiple network energy saving (NES) modes to discontinuous reception (DRX) configurations.
  • The mapping indicates the correspondence between NES modes and DRX configurations.
  • The UE then receives a message indicating a specific NES mode and monitors a downlink control channel based on the indicated mode and mapping.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied in mobile communication systems to optimize energy consumption. - It can enhance the efficiency of wireless networks by intelligently managing energy-saving modes and reception configurations.

Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) to receive a first message that includes an indication of a mapping between a set of multiple network energy saving (NES) modes and a set of multiple discontinuous reception (DRX) configurations. In some examples, the mapping indicates a correspondence between a respective NES mode of the set of multiple NES modes and a set of one or more DRX configurations of the set of multiple DRX configurations. The UE may receive a second message that includes an indication of a NES mode out of the set of multiple NES modes. The UE may monitor a downlink control channel in a accordance with a DRX configuration based on the indicated NES mode and the mapping.
