Abstract
An approach is described for a dynamic off period of a base station within a wireless communication environment and a process for notifying a UE of the same. In a first scenario, the DCI message is modified with newly-defined values indicative of the different power saving states (i.e., 'dynamic off states') of the base station. These power saving states may defined as suspending one or both of downlink transmission and uplink reception. In another scenario, a new notification message is defined. In either case, the notification signal may also include cell and/or beam specific parameters as well as an application delay that defines a start time of the dynamic off period.
