Power saving method in a wireless communication system

摘要

The present invention relates to a power-saving method in a wireless communication system. In a power-saving method for a terminal of a wireless communication system according to one aspect of the present invention, the terminal receives configuration information relating to power-saving from a base station and operates in a power-down mode in which receive processing is not carried out in accordance with the configuration information relating to power saving; and the configuration information comprises at least one or other of information relating to a time point at which the base station is not transmitting packets to the terminal and a time point at which the base station is transmitting packets to the terminal.

主权项

1. A method for saving power, performed by a user equipment in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving configuration information regarding power-saving from a base station; and operating in a power-down mode in which the user equipment does not perform reception processes, in accordance with the received configuration information for power-saving, wherein the configuration information includes at least one of information regarding a point in time at which the base station is not scheduled to transmit packets to the user equipment, and information regarding a point in time at which the base station is scheduled to transmit a packet to the user equipment, wherein the configuration information includes a HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Retransmit reQuest) Identifier (ID) monitoring set indicating one or more subframes which the user equipment is required to operate in a power-up mode in which the user equipment performs reception processes, wherein the HARQ ID monitoring set is determined based on load, traffic size and channel status of the user equipment, and wherein the method further includes operating in the power-up mode in the subframes indicated by the HARQ ID monitoring set only.
