Abstract
A user equipment (UE) power-cycles UE transmission modem components to reduce overall UE power consumption. For example, multiple HARQ ACK/NACK feedback bits are aggregated for a predetermined number of consecutive DL subframes, and then the feedback is transmitted in a single dedicated UL subframe so that a transmitter and power amplifier may be temporarily turned off (State 3) to reduce power consumption in the UE.
