Introduction Signalling Overhead Calculation Trace Analysis Potential Scheme Conclusion
Introduction
Diverse data application(DDA) : Many devices(e.g. smartphone, tablet) are capable of running a wide variety of data applications, often in parallel. Such a diversity in device and application type creates a corresponding diversity in the traffic profiles that must be efficiently supported by the radio access networks(RAN) on which they run Numerous applications require that an always-on experience is seamlessly delivered and presented to the end user

Trace Analysis
Experimental setup consisted of an LTE smart phone device and a software tool installed on the phone to capture layer 3 packets exchanged through the phones LTE interface Background traffic : Skype, Gtalk, Stock update, Twitter, Weather and News Active session : Safari, Android Market App and YouTube All the different traces were obtained from the same location with no mobility

Potential Scheme
R2-114308 discusses low data rate application and MTC(Machine Type Communication) small data transmission Potential schemes to improve the LTE RAN efficiency
Always-On in RRC_Connected State Making use of RRC_Idle mode Tx/Rx

But UE still needs to retain downlink timing/frequency synchronization and possible uplink timing, Since there can be a relatively long interval between packet transmission, the cost seems not so desirable

Upon receiving the infrequent small data transmission from the MTC devices, eNB sends the RRC connection rejection message to UE with cause value of the offline small data transmission. It also acknowledges the MTCs small data transmission at eNB.

Conclusion
R2-114273:Signalling Overhead of DDA over LTE
Proposal 1: We propose to investigate and develop efficient mechanisms to reduce the signalling overhead when running background traffic
