Abstract
A method and apparatus for detecting radio link failure (RLF) in a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) includes the WTRU performing a series of radio link measurements during a discontinuous reception (DRX) on-duration, comparing each of the series of radio link measurements to a threshold, and determining that the series of radio link measurements indicates an out-of-synch condition.
Claims1
A method of radio link failure (RLF) in a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU), the method comprising:
- performing a series of radio link measurements during discontinuous reception (DRX) mode;
- detecting a predetermined number of consecutive out-of-synch conditions based on the series of radio link measurements;
- starting a timer upon detecting the predetermined number of consecutive out-of-synch conditions;
- and
- while operating in DRX mode, continuing the series of radio link measurements using an evaluation period corresponding to non-DRX mode.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
