AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In wireless communication networks, when user equipment (UE) sends auxiliary information, the network may not be able to obtain all relevant information in a timely manner due to incomplete information or improper timer settings, resulting in low operational efficiency.

Method used

The user equipment (UE) determines whether to send or delay sending UE auxiliary information messages by detecting the status of available information, independent of the status of the disable timer, or starts or restarts the disable timer under certain conditions, in order to ensure the integrity and timely transmission of information.

Benefits of technology

It improves the transmission efficiency of UE auxiliary information in wireless communication networks, ensures that the network obtains complete service information in a timely manner, and avoids inefficient operations and waiting.

Abstract

According to one aspect, a user equipment configured to transmit user equipment assistance information in a connected mode with a traffic bearer is provided. The user equipment can include at least one processor and at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the user equipment to at least perform: determining that one or more pieces of uplink traffic information that have become available since the user equipment was configured to provide uplink traffic information have not been transmitted in any user equipment assistance information message including uplink traffic information; and based on the determination, initiating transmission of a user equipment assistance information message including the one or more pieces of uplink traffic information independent of a state of a prohibit timer governing transmission of uplink traffic information.
