XR Communication Configuration Using Dynamic DRX and Timing

The patent implements dynamic configuration adaptation by enabling the network device to determine service features (such as aperiodicity, jitter, and packet size characteristics) and dynamically adjust communication parameters including DRX cycle lengths, PDCCH monitoring frequencies, and transmission timing. This dynamic adjustment allows the system to adapt communication mechanisms to match the specific characteristics of XR services, thereby reducing unnecessary energy consumption while maintaining service quality.

The patent applies parameter changes by modifying key communication parameters based on detected service features. Specifically, it adjusts DRX cycle parameters, PDCCH monitoring parameters, and transmission timing parameters to optimize energy efficiency for XR services. The network device determines appropriate parameter values based on service feature analysis and configures these parameters accordingly, enabling the system to transition from static conventional configurations to optimized dynamic parameter sets tailored for XR applications.

The patent implements self-service mechanisms where the network device autonomously determines service features from incoming data patterns and automatically adjusts communication configurations without requiring manual intervention or complex external coordination. The system performs self-diagnosis of service characteristics (such as detecting aperiodicity and jitter patterns) and self-configures appropriate parameters, thereby improving reliability for timely data delivery while managing complexity through automated decision-making processes.

The patent employs feedback loops where the network device continuously monitors communication performance and service feature patterns, then adjusts configurations based on this feedback. The system detects service features from actual data transmission patterns and uses this information to refine DRX cycle lengths, PDCCH monitoring frequencies, and timing parameters. This closed-loop feedback mechanism ensures timely data delivery for XR services while managing complexity through iterative optimization rather than static complex configuration.

The patent applies dynamics by implementing variable DRX cycle lengths that adapt based on service feature detection. Instead of using fixed extended DRX cycles that would cause excessive latency, the network device determines appropriate cycle lengths dynamically - using shorter cycles when low latency is required for real-time XR services and longer cycles when energy efficiency is the primary concern. This dynamic adjustment resolves the contradiction by making DRX cycle length a flexible parameter rather than a static configuration.

The patent implements parameter changes by adjusting DRX cycle length parameters based on detected service characteristics. The network device analyzes service features such as data arrival patterns and latency requirements, then configures appropriate DRX cycle lengths. For real-time XR services with strict latency requirements, the system configures shorter DRX cycles to minimize latency while still providing energy savings compared to continuous reception. This parameter adaptation resolves the contradiction between energy efficiency and latency by optimizing the DRX cycle parameter to match specific service requirements.
