  • Patent number: 12108332
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application relate to a wake-up signal (WUS) detection method and apparatus, to reduce signaling overheads of a network side device. The WUS detection method is as follows: a terminal device detects a terminal device-specific field in a detected WUS. If the terminal device detects the terminal device-specific field in the WUS, and detects that the WUS includes wake-up information for the terminal device, the terminal device determines, by using location information of the terminal device-specific field as a first index, a first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource corresponding to the first index, and sends a first PUCCH, where the first PUCCH includes a first message used to feed back that the wake-up information for the terminal device is received.

  • Patent number: 12108340
    Abstract: Disclosed are a traffic transmission method and device, the method being performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system. Specifically, a non-access point (AP) STA of the present invention can receive, from an AP, a trigger frame triggering the transmission of a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU). The trigger frame includes information indicating at least one traffic identifier (TID) that is allowed to be transmitted in a target wake time (TWT) period. The TWT period may indicate a period in which the transmission of traffic for the at least one TID having a specific transmission condition is allowed, and the transmission of traffic not having the specific transmission condition is restricted. Thereafter, the non-AP STA transmits a PPDU, including the traffic corresponding to the at least one TID, to the AP within the TWT period.

The network may also send a signal for the user equipment to return to a default power mode based on the uplink signal strength. The user equipment may then reconfigure to the default power in full-duplex frequency division duplex (FD-FDD) mode. The user equipment may also send an indication of an uplink duty cycle which indicates the ratio of uplink allocations corresponding to uplink transmissions relative to total uplink and downlink allocations.
