Application: Method and apparatus for configuring sidelink discontinuous reception in a wireless communication system (Patent ID: US20240107626A1)
The patent filed by ASUSTeK Computer Inc. discloses a method and device for a second User Equipment (UE) to configure Sidelink (SL) Discontinuous Reception (DRX). The method involves the second UE initiating a sidelink service with a first UE, determining a SL DRX configuration based on the association between the sidelink service and SL DRX configuration, and monitoring the sidelink control channel based on the configured SL DRX parameters. The claims detail the specific steps involved in the method, including establishing a unicast link with the first UE, receiving the SL DRX configuration, transmitting Radio Resource Control (RRC) messages, and performing sidelink reception. The configuration parameters include timers, offsets, and cycle lengths for efficient monitoring of the sidelink control channel.
Furthermore, the second UE described in the patent includes a processor and memory to execute program code for establishing the unicast link, receiving the SL DRX configuration, transmitting RRC messages, and performing sidelink reception. The configuration parameters in the SL DRX configuration control the monitoring period of the sidelink control channel and include timers for on-duration, slot offset, inactive duration, retransmission, cycle length, short cycle length, cycle start offset, and round trip-time. The network node involved is typically a base station, such as a gNodeB (gNB), and the second UE can also transmit feedback associated with the sidelink reception to the first UE, which can be a positive or negative acknowledgement for Hybrid Automatic Repeat Requests (HARQ). Overall, the patent focuses on optimizing the configuration and monitoring of SL DRX for efficient sidelink communication between UEs.
