A user equipment (UE) device may reside in a state of dual connectivity with a master cell group (MCG) and a secondary cell group (SCG), wherein the radio access technologies of the MCG and the SCG are different. While in the dual connectivity state, the UE device may transition to a mode of reduced activity (e.g., processing and/or RF activity) relative to the secondary cell group (SCG) in order to save power, e.g., when traffic flow via the SCG is below a threshold, or when scheduling activity on the SCG is low. Various mechanisms may be employed to reduce activity, e.g., mechanisms such as reduction of beam monitoring, deactivation of secondary cells of the SCG, reduction of number of active antenna elements, employment of longer periods for periodic measurement and reporting processes, etc.
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR POSITIONING ENHANCEMENTS WITH WAKE-UP SIGNAL (WUS) CONFIGURATIONS
During a positioning session, a wake up signal (WUS) configuration for a user equipment (UE) operating in a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode may be adapted to avoid dormant secondary serving cells (SCells) for positioning. The location server, for example, may configure positioning assistance data and scheduling of uplink sounding reference signals (SRS) to exclude SCells that are included in a dormancy list for the UE. The location server, alternatively, may provide to a serving base station supporting a primary serving cell (PCell) for the UE an indication of the SCells to be used for positioning. The SCells may be removed from the dormancy list during the positioning session or may be brought out of dormancy for all or selected monitoring occasions during the positioning session.
Method for coordinated sleep mode in RAN for energy savings
A method and apparatus to receive from a plurality of network nodes, information of sleep mode plans; determine at least one pattern of the time periods that can be used to optimize the sleep modes to provide a highest power savings; and send information of the determined pattern of time periods to use to optimize the sleep modes. A method and apparatus to send towards a network device, information including sleep mode plans of at least one user equipment; negotiate with the aggregation node time periods for the sleep mode plans to determine at least one pattern of time periods that can be used to optimize the sleep mode plans of the at least one user equipment to provide a highest power savings to the at least one user equipment; and receive information of the at least one pattern of time periods to use to provide the highest power savings.
COMMUNICATION DEVICE SUPPORTING DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION OPERATION AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF
A method of operating a communication device supporting a discontinuous reception (DRX) operation includes determining a movement state of the communication device based on a first electric field value change amount in an inter-frequency band to obtain a determined movement state, the inter-frequency band being different from an intra-frequency band allocated for communication with a serving cell, determining at least one of a measurement target frequency band or a measurement target cell according to the determined movement state, measuring an electric field value corresponding to the at least one of the measurement target frequency band or the measurement target cell, and updating the movement state based on the electric field value to obtain an updated movement state.
METHOD FOR CONTROLLING COMMUNICATION IN DRX
A method for controlling a terminal to receive signaling from a wireless network during discontinuous reception, DRX, the method being carried out in the terminal and comprising determining (604) a time offset (ΔTO) between a first window (41) for monitoring a wake-up signal, WUS, occasion and a subsequent second window (42) for monitoring signal reception responsive to receiving a WUS in the first window, wherein said time offset is dependent on a characteristic (62) associated with a downlink signal from the wireless network in accordance with a predetermined rule.
COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS
A communication method and apparatus are provided, to resolve a problem that a terminal device may fail to normally communicate with a network side when an SCG is suspended and a link problem occurs in an MCG or a signal quality of the MCG deteriorates, so that communication reliability is improved. The communication method and the apparatus are applicable to a communication system of any dual connectivity architecture, such as EN-DC, NGEN-DC, NE-DC and NR-DC. The method includes: When detecting that a link problem occurs in an MCG or signal quality of the MCG is less than a signal quality threshold, a terminal device resumes a suspended SCG, to resume communication between the terminal device and a network side. The MCG is managed by a master node, and the SCG is managed by a secondary node.
