Samsung patents 5G wake-up method for extended reality devices

Patent drawing
Patent drawing from the official filing.

Samsung has filed a patent application for a method to manage power saving in 5G or 6G networks, specifically for Extended Reality (XR) services. The system uses specific wake-up signals and timing offsets to tell a user's device exactly when to turn on its radio to receive data, rather than staying active constantly.

Why it mattersThis could help extend battery life for future headsets or glasses by ensuring they only listen for data when necessary, rather than draining power while waiting for a signal.

In the filing’s own words

The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. Embodiments herein provide a method and system for wake-up signaling mechanism and Channel State Information (CSI) reporting operation for Extended Reality (XR) in wireless networks. The method includes configuring, by a network apparatus, an unicast DCP (DCI for power saving) and a XR wakeup signal at a user equipment (UE); determining, by the network apparatus, the unicast DCP and the XR wakeup signal are configured at the UE; transmitting, by the network apparatus, one or more offset values to apply to the UE for starting the DRX On duration Timer for XR services; and adjusting, by the UE, offset value to delay or to start in advance of a DRX On Duration Timer at the UE for XR services in the wireless networks.
