Abstract
In accordance with the exemplary embodiments of the invention there is at least a method and an apparatus to perform operations including starting, by a device of a communications network, a timer in response to a radio resource control message, where a power preference indication message is not sent by the device for at least a duration of the timer.
Claims21
A method comprising:
- receiving, at a device of a communication network and prior to sending a power preference indication message, a radio resource control message;
- and
- starting, by the device of the communications network and in response to the receiving of the radio resource control message, a power preference indication delay timer, the power preference indication delay timer prohibiting a power preference indication message from being sent by the device for at least a duration of the power preference indication delay timer.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium encoded with a computer program code, the computer program code executable by a processor to perform actions comprising:
- receiving, at a device of a communication network and prior to sending a power preference indication message, a radio resource control message;
- and
- starting, by the device of the communications network and in response to the receiving of the radio resource control message, a power preference indication delay timer, the power preference indication delay timer prohibiting a power preference indication message from being by the device for at least a duration of the power preference indication delay timer.
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to at least:
- receive, at the apparatus and prior to sending a power preference indication message, a radio resource control message;
- and
- start a power preference indication delay timer in response to the receipt of the radio resource control message, the power preference indication delay timer prohibiting a power preference indication message from being sent by the apparatus for at least a duration of the power preference indication delay timer.
