Abstract
A device determines a periodicity of downstream traffic destined for a User Equipment device (UE) and sets a value of at least one Discontinuous Reception (DRx) cycle length parameter to compensate for the determined periodicity of the downstream traffic. The device generates UE DRx instructions that include the at least one DRx cycle length parameter and sends the UE DRx instructions to the UE for implementing DRx at the UE.
