DISCONTINUOUS DOWNLINK CHANNEL MONITORING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18512740 titled 'DISCONTINUOUS DOWNLINK CHANNEL MONITORING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on a communication device (UE) transmitting capability information and adjusting monitoring of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) based on received indications.

• Communication device (UE) transmits capability information with indication of a discontinuous monitoring delay period.
• UE receives message to adjust monitoring of PDCCH and monitors for PDCCH during the delay period.
• Monitoring for PDCCH is adjusted following the delay period based on received indication.
• Enables various functions like PDSCH reception, reference signal monitoring, and channel reporting during the adjusted monitoring period.

Potential Applications

• Mobile telecommunications
• Internet of Things (IoT) devices
• Wireless networking technologies

Problems Solved

• Efficient monitoring of PDCCH
• Optimal resource allocation in wireless communications
• Enhanced communication reliability and performance

Benefits

• Improved communication efficiency
• Enhanced network capacity
• Better user experience and connectivity reliability

Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A communication device, otherwise known as a user equipment (UE) may transmit capability information including an indication of a discontinuous monitoring delay period. The UE may receive a message including an indication to adjust monitoring of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), and monitor for the PDCCH during the discontinuous monitoring delay period. The UE may adjust monitoring for the PDCCH following the discontinuous monitoring delay period during a temporal period based on the received indication to adjust monitoring of the PDCCH. In some examples, at least one of physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) reception, downlink reference signal monitoring, uplink reference signal transmissions, and channel reporting is enabled during the temporal period while monitoring of the PDCCH is adjusted.
