Abstract
A method of operating a communications device for transmitting user plane data to a wireless communications network via a wireless access interface provided by a cell of the wireless communications network when the communications device is not in an active radio resource connected mode is provided. The method comprises transmitting the user plane data using one of a preconfigured set of uplink radio resources of the wireless access interface and a scheduled random access procedure message, and monitoring a preconfigured set of downlink radio resources of the wireless access interface for a downlink signal, the preconfigured set of downlink radio resources being provided in response to the transmitted user plane data.
