Apparatus for scheduling in LTE machine type communication

摘要

The present invention relates to a way that a machine type communication module transmits/receives data, using a sleep mode or avoiding a busy time of a base station. That is, the present invention relates to an apparatus for scheduling in LTE machine type communication in which a machine type communication module transmits/receives data, using a sleep mode or avoiding a busy time of a base station for a response to an order or for a periodic report. The apparatus for scheduling in LTE machine type communication includes a machine type communication module that performs machine type communication with a base station.

主权项

1. An apparatus of scheduling in machine type communication, the apparatus comprising a machine type communication module that performs machine type communication with a base station,
the machine type communication module comprising: a transmitter configured to transmit data to the base station; a receiver configured to receive data from the base station; an antenna configured to match with the base station at an RF; and a switch configured to switch and connect the transmitter and the receiver with the antenna, wherein when the receiver of the machine type communication module receives from the base station a message indicating information on a busy time, the machine type communication module is configured to stop transmitting or transmit the data based on the information on the busy time, and wherein the busy time is information of scheduling which the base station has determined based on at least one of (i) whether the number of terminals is more connected to the base station than a predetermined number of terminals, (ii) whether the data keep being used more than a predetermined amount of data, and (iii) whether the terminals are connected for a predetermined time period.
