Method and arrangement for reducing battery power consumption of a user equipment

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and arrangements for saving battery power consumption of a UE in mobile telecommunication system. The method comprises the step of checking whether the UE fulfills at least one of the pre-determined criteria that a subscriber explicitly requests to receive paging at extended DRX cycle and that a new cell is not reselected during a pre-determined time. If the at least one of the pre-determined criteria is fulfilled the step of applying an extended DRX cycle is performed.
