Abstract
A power control method and apparatus, and a device. The method includes: determining, by a network device, whether there is to-be-received uplink data in a first scheduling period on a first receive channel; and in response to determining that there is no to-be-received uplink data in the first scheduling period on the first receive channel, controlling, by the network device, a state of the first receive channel in the first scheduling period to be an off state. This reduces power consumption of the network device.
Claims20
A power control method, comprising:
- determining, by a network device, whether there is a to-be-received uplink data in a first scheduling period on a first receive channel;
- and
- in response to determining that the to-be-received uplink data is not in the first scheduling period on the first receive channel, controlling, by the network device, a state of the first receive channel in the first scheduling period to be an off state, wherein
- the first receive channel comprises a receive end and a low noise amplifier, and the controlling, by the network device, the state of the first receive channel in the first scheduling period to be the off state comprises:
- before the first scheduling period starts, controlling, by the network device, the receive end and/or the low noise amplifier to be turned off.
A power control apparatus in a network device, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory coupled to the processor, the memory comprising instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the power control apparatus to:
- determine whether there is a to-be-received uplink data in a first scheduling period on a first receive channel;
- and
- in response to the power control apparatus determining the to-be-received uplink data is not in the first scheduling period on the first receive channel, control a state of the first receive channel in the first scheduling period to be an off state, wherein
- the first receive channel comprises a receive end and a low noise amplifier, and the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the power control apparatus to:
- before the first scheduling period starts, control the receive end and/or the low noise amplifier to be turned off.
A computer-readable storage medium configured to store instructions that in response to the instructions being executed by a computer or processor, cause the computer or the processor to implement a power control method, the method comprising:
- determining, by a network device, whether there is a to-be-received uplink data in a first scheduling period on a first receive channel;
- and
- in response to determining that the to-be-received uplink data is not in the first scheduling period on the first receive channel, controlling, by the network device, a state of the first receive channel in the first scheduling period to be an off state, wherein
- the first receive channel comprises a receive end and a low noise amplifier, and the controlling, by the network device, the state of the first receive channel in the first scheduling period to be the off state comprises:
- before the first scheduling period starts, controlling, by the network device, the receive end and/or the low noise amplifier to be turned off.
