Abstract
A method implemented by a user equipment (UE). An indicator is read. One or more sounding reference signals (SRS) are not reported when the indicator is set to “true” and an On Duration Timer associated with a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle is not running. One or more SRS are not reported when the indicator is not set to “true” and the UE is not in active time during the DRX cycle.
Claims15
A method implemented by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
- receiving an indicator;
- not reporting one or more sounding reference signals (SRS) when the indicator is set to “true” and an On Duration Timer associated with a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle is not running;
- and
- not reporting the one or more SRS when the indicator is not set to “true” and the UE is not in active time during the DRX cycle.
A computer readable medium comprising a tangible memory storing instructions which, when executed by a processor, implement a method comprising:
- receiving an indicator;
- not reporting one or more sounding reference signals (SRS) when the indicator is set to “true” and an On Duration Timer associated with a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle is not running;
- and
- not reporting the one or more SRS when the indicator is not set to “true” and the UE is not in active time during the DRX cycle.
A user equipment (UE) comprising:
- a processor configured to cause the UE to receive an indicator and not report one or more sounding reference signals (SRS) when the indicator is set to “true” and an On Duration Timer associated with a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle is not running, and not report the SRS when the indicator is not set to “true” and the UE is not in active time during the DRX cycle.
