Radio Resource Control Technique

摘要

A technique for controlling a duty cycle of a transmitter (124) in a mobile device (120) is provided. When the mobile device is wirelessly connected to a telecommunications network (100), discontinuous reception and transmission is provided by a duty cycle including an active state and an inactive state. As to a method aspect of the technique, a switching option for initiating the inactive state after the active state is determined. It is assessed whether a timer (126) of the mobile device triggers a future transmission at a corresponding transmission time. If a time difference between the switching option and the transmission timer exceed a predefined minimum duration, the inactive state is initiated.

1. A method of controlling a duty cycle of a transmitter of a mobile device wirelessly connected to a telecommunications network, the duty cycle including an active state and an inactive state, the method comprising:
determining a switching option for initiating the inactive state after the active state; assessing whether at least one timer of the mobile device triggers a future transmission at a transmission time; and initiating the inactive state in response to determining that a time difference between the switching option and the transmission time exceeds a predefined minimum duration.
