Abstract:
A device and method for power optimization for a user equipment (UE) without neighbor cell measurement configuration. The UE may be configured with Connected Discontinuous Reception (C-DRX) functionality including a cycle with an onDuration. The UE may be configured with carrier aggregation (CA) in the unlicensed spectrum including a reference signal (DRS) monitoring timing configuration (DMTC) occasion that occurs outside of the onDuration. The UE determines at least one subframe of the onDuration for the UE to utilize an active mode of processing related to performing measurements corresponding to a cell utilizing the unlicensed spectrum. The UE determines to utilize a sleep mode of processing related to performing the measurements during the DMTC occasion based on detecting a first downlink signal transmitted by the cell during the at least one subframe of the onDuration.

Claim (Index 16):
A user equipment (UE) comprising:\n a transceiver configured to establish a connection to a primary cell of a network, the UE and the network configured with a Connected Discontinuous Reception (C-DRX) functionality, the C-DRX functionality including a cycle with at least one onDuration, the UE further configured with carrier aggregation (CA) in an unlicensed spectrum, CA in the unlicensed spectrum including a primary component carrier (PCC) served by the primary cell on a frequency band in the licensed spectrum and a secondary component carrier (SCC) served by a secondary cell on a frequency band in an unlicensed spectrum, CA in the unlicensed spectrum further including a reference signal (DRS) monitoring timing configuration (DMTC) occasion that occurs outside of the at least one onDuration; and a processor configured to perform operations including:\n determining, prior to the DMTC occasion, that a type of neighbor cell measurement in the unlicensed spectrum is not configured; \n determining at least one subframe of a first onDuration for the UE to utilize an active mode of processing related to performing at least one measurement corresponding to the secondary cell, wherein the DMTC occasion is subsequent to the first onDuration; and \n determining to utilize a sleep mode of processing related to performing the at least one measurement during the DMTC occasion based on detecting a first downlink signal transmitted by the secondary cell during the at least one subframe of the first onDuration.
