DRX WAKEUP RULE IN AN EICIC ENVIRONMENT

摘要

Methods, systems, and devices are described for a UE to determine a DRX wakeup rule in an eICIC environment. A UE may identify a measurement period associated with reduced interference from one or more cells in a wireless communications network. The cells may be a serving cell or a neighbor cell. The measurement period may be identified based on eICIC data available to the UE. The eICIC data may be sent to the UE by a serving cell and/or determined by the UE. The UE may power up a wireless modem to perform a warm-up measurement of the serving cell during the identified measurement period prior to transitioning the UE to a DRX on state.

1. A method for wireless communication comprising:
identifying, by a user equipment (UE) associated with a serving cell, a measurement period associated with reduced interference from one or more neighboring cells in a wireless communications network, wherein the measurement period is identified based at least in part on enhanced inter-cell interference coordination (eICIC) data available to the UE; and powering up a wireless modem of the UE to perform a warm-up measurement of the serving cell during the identified measurement period prior to transitioning the UE to a discontinuous reception (DRX) on state.
