  • Patent number: 10462631
    Abstract: Techniques are described that can be used for efficient mobility management signaling. In some cases, a network can specify an extended timer used for a machine to machine (M2M) type device to communicate with a network. The extended timer can be transmitted in connection with an attachment acceptance message, Location Updating Accept message, Tracking Area Update Accept, or Routing Area Update Accept message. In some cases, a timer can be adjusted using a multiplier in order to increase a period at which communications with the network occur. The network can transmit an indication to change a timer by multiplying the timer with the multiplier.

  • Patent number: 10284656
    Abstract: Examples may include techniques for a device trigger recall or a device trigger replace procedure as implemented at a machine type communication-interworking function (MTC-IWF) in response to a command received from a service capability server (SCS). Examples may also include the SCS generating a command for a device trigger recall or a device replace to cause the MTC-IWF to implement the device trigger recall or device trigger replace procedure to either recall or replace a trigger message destined for user equipment. Both the MTC-IWF and the SCS may operate in compliance with one or more 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE) standards.

  • Patent number: 10085172
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for low power consumption in wireless communication systems are disclosed herein. An evolved node B (eNodeB) is configured to provide a connection reconfiguration message to user equipment (UE) connected to the eNodeB, the connection reconfiguration message configuring the UE to indicate a power preference. The eNodeB receives assistance information from the UE. The assistance information includes a low power preference indication and a timer length, wherein the timer length indicates a preferred duration for a low power mode. The eNodeB provides, in response to receiving the assistance information, a connection release message to the UE. The connection release message includes paging discontinuous reception (DRX) information that includes the timer length.
