Resource allocation and power optimization is a new challenge inmultimedia services in cellular communication systems. Toprovide a better end-user experience, the fourth generation (4G)standard Long Term Evolution/Long Term Evolution-Advanced(LTE/LTE-Advanced) has been developed for high-bandwidth mobileaccess to accommodate today's data-heavy applications.LTE/LTE-Advanced has adopted discontinuous reception (DRX) toextend the user equipment's battery lifetime, thereby furthersupporting various services and large amounts of datatransmissions.
By introducing the basics of mathematical analysis and performanceevaluation of power-saving mechanisms in 3rd generation partnershipproject (3GPP) LTE and LTE-Advanced networks, the authors of thisbook aim to describe novel algorithms which could have betterperformance capabilities than previous methods.
Chapter 1 gives the basic theory description of the 3GPP LTEnetwork and 3GPP DRX power saving mechanism, empirical measurementsof LTE network traffic and an overview of the basic LTE DRX modelin the field of power saving techniques. Chapter 2 provides stepsfor deriving a 2-state analytical model up to a 4-state DRX model.The third and final chapter summarizes alternative methods for theimplementation of LTE DRX.
Contents
1. Basic Theory.
2. Analytical Semi-Markov Power-Saving Models.
3. Other Approaches for LTE Power Saving.
