ADAPTIVE NETWORK SEARCH STRATEGY BASED ON USER EQUIPMENT ACTIVE STATE

摘要

IoT UEs, such as wearable device like smart watches, are very sensitive for power consumption. Adapting the network search strategy based on whether UE anticipates user interaction may improve the user experience and improve battery life. Furthermore, wearable devices (e.g., smart watches) include various sensors that indicate likely user interaction. Aspect of the present invention as directed towards adapting a network search strategy based a UE state associated with user activity and interaction with the UE. This UE state may be determined based on various sensors within the UE device and a display status.
