1. A user equipment (UE), comprising:

  • an interface to send or receive a power preference indication parameter to or from a memory device;

    a processor to generate an uplink dedicated control channel (UL-DCCH) message in a third generation partnership project (3GPP) long term evolution (LTE) wireless network, wherein the UL-DCCH message comprises a power preference indication parameter to assist in a selection of a power saving setting; and

    a radio frequency (RF) transceiver to transmit the UL-DCCH message to an evolved node B (eNodeB) and to receive, in response, the power saving setting,wherein the processor is further configured to determine that the RF transceiver transmitted the UL-DCCH message to a first cell of the wireless communication network within a predetermined time period before a handover of the UE from the first cell to a second cell of the wireless communication network; and

    wherein in response to the determination and after completion of the handover of the UE from the first cell to the second cell, the RF transceiver initiates transmission of the UL-DCCH message to the second cell.
