发明名称 System and method for adjusting monitoring of timeslots during data transmission
摘要 A method for coordinating communications between a user equipment and a base station is presented. The method includes receiving an assignment of a first set of timeslots for at least one of uplink and downlink communications between the user equipment and the base station. The method also includes transmitting to the base station an instruction to delay a reduction of a number of timeslots monitored by the user equipment to less than the first set of timeslots for communications. In some implementations, the instruction comprises at least one of a predetermined communication and a block including at least one of a dummy block format and a specified block format. The method may include transmitting a control block to the base station, the control block identifying one or more timeslots being monitored by the user equipment.

主权项 1. A method for coordinating communications between a user equipment and a base station, comprising: receiving an assignment of a first set of timeslots for at least one of uplink and downlink communications between the user equipment and the base station; monitoring the first set of timeslots identified for at least one of uplink communications and downlink communications; determining, at the user equipment, a usage metric defining a threshold for a communication activity between the user equipment and the base station; tracking, at the user equipment, usage of the first set of timeslots identified for at least one of uplink communications and downlink communications; detecting, at the user equipment, that the communication activity between the user equipment and the base station has not met the threshold; detecting, at the user equipment, a user-initiated action likely to generate network activity, the user-initiated action including at least one of entering content of an email message and entering content into a web-based form; and after detecting, at the user equipment, that the communication activity between the user equipment and the base station has not met the threshold and detecting, at the user equipment, the user-initiated action likely to generate network activity: transmitting to the base station an instruction to delay a reduction of a number of timeslots monitored by the user equipment to less than the first set of timeslots for communications that would otherwise result from the communication activity reaching the threshold.
