EXTENDING DRX OPERATION IN A HIGH-POWER STATE

According to discontinuous reception (DRX), data communication by a communication device occurs at periodic intervals. Between those periodic intervals, the communication device may enter a low-power state. Due to this periodic communication of data, some data may be delayed. Such a delay may be und...

Zusammenfassung:According to discontinuous reception (DRX), data communication by a communication device occurs at periodic intervals. Between those periodic intervals, the communication device may enter a low-power state. Due to this periodic communication of data, some data may be delayed. Such a delay may be undesirable in various instances. Thus, an apparatus may be configured to determine that the apparatus is scheduled to transition from a first power state to a second power state in association with a DRX cycle. The second power state may be lower than the first power state. The apparatus may be further configured to determine that the first power state of the apparatus is to be extended. The apparatus may be configured to autonomously extend the first power state through transmission of a transaction based on the determination that the first power state of the apparatus is to be extended.
