US 12,615,688 B2 · User equipment discontinuous reception timing in association with a cell discontinuous transmission configuration and/or a cell discontinuous reception configuration

Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. Some aspects relate generally to UE discontinuous reception (DRX) timing in association with a cell discontinuous transmission (DTX) configuration and/or a cell DRX configuration (“cell DTX/DRX configuration”). Some aspects more specifically relate to modifying one or more UE DRX timers in association with a cell DTX cycle and/or a cell DRX cycle (“cell DTX/DRX cycle”). For example, in some aspects, a UE may modify UE DRX timers to maintain a number of activity states in association with the cell DTX/DRX configuration. For example, the UE may maintain a UE active time, a UE DRX inactive time, a cell DTX non-active time, a cell DRX non-active time, and/or a cell DTX/DRX non-active time in association with the cell DTX/DRX configuration.

Dependent claims

A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:

one or more memories storing processor-readable code;
and
one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and individually or collectively operable to cause the UE to:
receive first configuration information indicative of a UE discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration,
wherein the UE DRX configuration is associated with a first UE DRX cell group and a second UE DRX cell group;
receive second configuration information indicative of a cell discontinuous transmission (DTX) configuration associated with a cell DTX cycle of a serving cell and/or a cell DRX configuration associated with a cell DRX cycle of the serving cell,
wherein the cell DTX configuration is associated with the first UE DRX cell group;
modify, in association with at least one of the cell DTX cycle or the cell DRX cycle, at least one UE DRX timer associated with an activity state of a UE DRX cycle associated with the UE DRX configuration;
and
monitor, in association with modifying the at least one UE DRX timer, a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) during a UE active time.
