USER EQUIPMENT ASSISTANCE INFORMATION AND BUFFER STATUS REPORT EXTENSION FOR GREEN NETWORKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17721201 Titled 'USER EQUIPMENT ASSISTANCE INFORMATION AND BUFFER STATUS REPORT EXTENSION FOR GREEN NETWORKS'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It explains that a user equipment (UE) can send messages indicating a time period before expected traffic is available for transmission, as well as the size of the expected traffic. These messages can include UE assistance information (UAI) or buffer status report (BSR) messages. The UE then receives a response message indicating that a network entity should enter a sleep mode during a second time period based on the first time period and the size of the expected traffic. The network entity can enter sleep mode based on this information.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit one or more messages indicating a first time period having a duration prior to expected traffic being available for transmission at the UE, and indicating a size associated with the expected traffic (e.g., a quantity of bits). In some examples, the one or more messages may include a UE assistance information (UAI) message or a buffer status report (BSR) message. The UE may receive a response message based on the one or more messages indicating that a network entity is to enter a sleep mode during a second time period based on the first time period and the size associated with the expected traffic. In some examples, the network entity may enter the sleep mode based on the first time period and the size associated with the expected traffic.
