1. A radio terminal comprising:
- a radio interface configured to enable radio communication with a radio base station by using a predetermined radio band;
a controller configured to control switching between a wake-up state in which the radio interface is turned on and a sleep state in which the radio interface is turned off; and
an acquiring unit configured to acquire a reference wake-up timing scheduled as a wake-up timing for switching from the sleep state to the wake-up state, whereinthe controller shifts the wake-up timing from the reference wake-up timing to a different reference wake-up timing, andthe controller shifts the wake-up timing from the different reference wake-up timing back to the reference wake-up timing, when the predetermined radio band at the different wake-up timing is occupied by a different radio terminal.

Abstract
A radio terminal includes a radio interface configured to allow radio communication with a radio base station, and a controller configured to control switching between a wake-up state in which the radio interface is turned on and a sleep state in which the radio interface is turned off. The radio terminal acquires a reference wake-up timing scheduled as a wake-up timing for switching from the sleep state to the wake-up state. The controller shifts the wake-up timing from the reference wake-up timing.

15. A radio communication system comprising:
-
a radio base station; and a plurality of radio terminals each having a radio interface configured to allow radio communication with the radio base station by using a predetermined radio band; a controller configured to control switching between a wake-up state in which the radio interface is turned on and a sleep-state in which the radio interface is turned off; and a setter configured to set a reference wake-up timing scheduled as a wake-up timing for switching from the sleep state to the wake-up state, wherein the controller shifts the wake-up timing from the reference wake-up timing to a different reference wake-up timing, and the controller shifts the wake-up timing from the different reference wake-up timing back to the reference wake-up timing, when the predetermined radio band at the different wake-up timing is occupied by a different radio terminal.

16. A radio communication method for performing radio communication by using a predetermined radio band in a radio communication system including a radio base station and a plurality of radio terminals each having a radio interface configured to allow radio communication with the radio base station, the radio communication method comprising:
-
controlling switching between a wake-up state in which the radio interface is turned on and a sleep-state in which the radio interface is turned off; setting a reference wake-up timing scheduled as a wake-up timing for switching from the sleep state to the wake-up state; shifting the wake-up timing from the reference wake-up timing to a different reference wake-up timing, and shifting the wake-up timing from the different reference wake-up timing back to the reference wake-up timing, when the predetermined radio band at the different wake-up timing is occupied by a different radio terminal.
