Multiple active discontinuous reception (DRX) configurations

An apparatus for wireless communication at a network node, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
• transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a plurality of discontinuous reception (DRX) configurations;
• transmit, to the UE, information indicating one DRX cycle from a plurality of DRX cycles of the plurality of DRX configurations, wherein the one DRX cycle comprises a minimum DRX cycle of the plurality of DRX cycles and is applied to at least one procedure associated with at least one of radio link monitoring (RLM), beam failure detection (BFD), or radio resource monitoring (RRM);
• transmit, to the UE, information associated with an active time of a first DRX configuration of the plurality of DRX configurations, the active time being different from an inactive time of the first DRX configuration;
• and
• transmit, to the UE, data based on the active time of the first DRX configuration.

A method of wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• receiving a plurality of discontinuous reception (DRX) configurations;
• receiving information indicating one DRX cycle from a plurality of DRX cycles of the plurality of DRX configurations, wherein the one DRX cycle comprises a minimum DRX cycle of the plurality of DRX cycles;
• applying the one DRX cycle to at least one procedure associated with at least one of radio link monitoring (RLM), beam failure detection (BFD), or radio resource monitoring (RRM);
• receiving information associated with an active time of a first DRX configuration of the plurality of DRX configurations, the active time being different from an inactive time of the first DRX configuration;
• and
• monitoring for data based on the active time of the first DRX configuration.
