Analysis of discontinuous reception based energy-saving techniques

Abstract

Discontinuous reception (DRX) is one of the key energy saving techniques in 3GPP HSPA and LTE communication standards. This paper aims complex mathematical analysis of power consumption and message delay in DRX mode. The analysis is based on the bursty traffic model which could be used for approximation of real traffic.
