Abstract
Discontinuous reception (DRX) operation in a wireless communication system is disclosed. According to this, when the UE received configuration information for a long discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle and a short DRX cycle from a network, and receive a data unit comprising at least one DRX command Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) from the network, the UE starts using the long DRX cycle, if the data unit comprises two or more DRX command MAC CEs.
Claims12
A method for a user equipment (UE) to operate in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving configuration information for a long discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle and a short DRX cycle from a network;
- receiving a data unit comprising at least one DRX command Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) from the network;
- and
- using the long DRX cycle, when said data unit comprises two or more DRX command MAC CEs.
A user equipment (UE) for operating in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
- a transceiver configured to receive configuration information for a long discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle and a short DRX cycle;
- and
- a processor connected to the transceiver and adapted to use the long DRX cycle, when a data unit comprising at least one DRX command Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) is received through the transceiver and said data unit is determined to comprise two or more DRX command MAC CEs.
A method for a network to operate in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- transmitting configuration information for a long discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle and a short DRX cycle to a user equipment (UE);
- and
- transmitting a data unit comprising at least two DRX command Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Elements (CEs) to the UE to make the UE use the long DRX cycle.
A network apparatus for operating in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:
- a transceiver configured to transmit configuration information for a long discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle and a short DRX cycle;
- and
- a processor connected to the transceiver and adapted to control the transceiver to transmit a data unit comprising at least two DRX command Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Elements (CEs) to the UE when the processor determined to make the UE use the long DRX cycle.
