Resource allocation and power optimization is a new challenge in
multimedia services in cellular communication systems. To
provide a better end-user experience, the fourth generation (4G)
standard Long Term Evolution/Long Term Evolution-Advanced
(LTE/LTE-Advanced) has been developed for high-bandwidth mobile
access to accommodate today’s data-heavy applications.
LTE/LTE-Advanced has adopted discontinuous reception (DRX) to
extend the user equipment’s battery lifetime, thereby further
supporting various services and large amounts of data
transmissions.
By introducing the basics of mathematical analysis and performance
evaluation of power-saving mechanisms in 3rd generation partnership
project (3GPP) LTE and LTE-Advanced networks, the authors of this
book aim to describe novel algorithms which could have better
performance capabilities than previous methods.
Chapter 1 gives the basic theory description of the 3GPP LTE
network and 3GPP DRX power saving mechanism, empirical measurements
of LTE network traffic and an overview of the basic LTE DRX model
in the field of power saving techniques. Chapter 2 provides steps
for deriving a 2-state analytical model up to a 4-state DRX model.
The third and final chapter summarizes alternative methods for the
implementation of LTE DRX.
Contents
1. Basic Theory.
2. Analytical Semi-Markov Power-Saving Models.
3. Other Approaches for LTE Power Saving.
