Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure provide methods and apparatuses for wireless communication. In some embodiments, a first mobile device can receive a first indication of a first transmit activity pattern associated with a second mobile device that transmits data to the first mobile device via a radio interface without passing through a base station. The first mobile device can compute a first receive activity pattern that is inclusive of at least the first transmit activity pattern. The first mobile device monitors the radio interface according to the first receive activity pattern.
Claims20
A method for wireless communication, comprising:
- receiving, by a first mobile device, a first indication of a first transmit activity pattern associated with a second mobile device that transmits data to the first mobile device via a radio interface without passing through a base station;
- computing, by the first mobile device, a first receive activity pattern, the first receive activity pattern being inclusive of at least the first transmit activity pattern;
- and
- monitoring, by the first mobile device, the radio interface according to the first receive activity pattern.
An apparatus, comprising:
- receiving circuitry configured to receive and process radio signals;
- and
- processing circuitry configured to:
- receive a first indication of a first transmit activity pattern associated with a second apparatus that transmits data to the apparatus via a radio interface without passing through a base station;
- compute a first receive activity pattern, the first receive activity pattern being inclusive of at least the first transmit activity pattern;
- and
- control the receiving circuitry to monitor the radio interface according to the first receive activity pattern.
