Abstract

A method for terminal requested base station controlled terminal transmission throttling includes transmitting a throttling request signal to the base station, the throttling request signal including data indicating to the base station to issue a discontinuous uplink transmission grant to the terminal, wherein the throttling request signal includes data representing a maximum duty cycle of forthcoming discontinuous uplink transmissions from the terminal to the base station, receiving from the base station the discontinuous uplink transmission grant, and transmitting discontinuous uplink transmissions from the terminal to the base station that do not exceed the maximum duty cycle, wherein the maximum duty cycle corresponds to discontinuous uplink transmission bursts of less than a time t corresponding to continuous uplink transmissions.
