Title: Procede et appareil de maintien de synchronisation de liaison montante et de reduction de consommation d'energie de batterie
Inventor: CHEN JOHN S
IPC: H04W56/00
Filed: 2007-03-22
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé selon lequel un Noeud B envoie un message d'interrogation à une unité de transmission/réception sans fil (WTRU). L'unité WTRU envoie une rafale de synchronisation de liaison montante en réponse au message d'interrogation sans conflit. Le Noeud B estime un décalage de synchronisation de liaison montante en fonction de la rafale de synchronisation et envoie une commande d'ajustement de synchronisation de liaison montante à l'unité WTRU. L'unité WTRU ajuste ensuite la synchronisation de liaison montante selon la commande de synchronisation de liaison montante. En variante, le Noeud B peut envoyer un message de planification pour la synchronisation de liaison montante à l'unité WTRU. L'unité WTRU peut envoyer une rafale de synchronisation en fonction du message de planification. En variante, l'unité WTRU peut effectuer une synchronisation de liaison montante à base de conflit après réception d'une requête de synchronisation provenant du Noeud B. L'unité WTRU peut entrer dans un état de repos au lieu d'effectuer un transfert vers une nouvelle cellule lorsque l'unité WTRU se déplace vers la nouvelle cellule. Un intervalle de réception discontinue (DRX) pour l'unité WTRU peut être établi en fonction de l'activité de l'unité WTRU.
