Abstract
A discontinuous reception method in a wireless communication system, including: determining to employ a consecutive carrier aggregation or a non-consecutive carrier aggregation; in case of the consecutive carrier aggregation, for a primary cell and each of the secondary cells, setting a common on-duration timer and/or a common discontinuous reception inactivity timer; and in case of the non-consecutive carrier aggregation, for a primary cell and each of the secondary cells, setting separate on-duration timers and/or separate discontinuous reception inactivity timers.
Claims21
(canceled)
An electronic device in a communication system, comprising:
- circuitry configured to
- configure a plurality of secondary cells in the communication system for carrier aggregation with a primary cell;
- acquire a MAC signaling of secondary cell activation/deactivation command from a base station;
- perform activating/deactivating operation to the plurality of secondary cells according to the activation/deactivation command;
- and
- apply a same DRX (Discontinuous Reception) operation to the activated secondary cells and the primary cell by monitoring PDCCHs corresponding to the activated secondary cells and the primary cell in identical active time which comprises on duration time and inactivity time, wherein
- the activation/deactivation command is transmitted by the base station in consideration of at least one factors of:
- an amount of data for transmission, location of the electronic device, moving speed of the electronic device, signal quality and carrier coverage.
A method in a communication system, comprising
- configuring, using circuitry, a plurality of secondary cells in the communication system for carrier aggregation with a primary cell;
- acquiring a MAC signaling of secondary cell activation/deactivation command from a base station;
- performing activating/deactivating operation to the plurality of secondary cells according to the activation/deactivation command;
- and
- applying a same DRX (Discontinuous Reception) operation to the activated secondary cells and the primary cell by monitoring PDCCHs corresponding to the activated secondary cells and the primary cell in identical active time which comprises on duration time and inactivity time, wherein
- the activation/deactivation command is transmitted by the base station in consideration of at least one factors of:
- an amount of data for transmission, location of the electronic device, moving speed of the electronic device, signal quality and carrier coverage.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium including executable instructions, which when executed by an information processing machine cause the information processing machine to execute a method for a user equipment, the method comprising:
- configuring a plurality of secondary cells in the communication system for carrier aggregation with a primary cell;
- acquiring a MAC signaling of secondary cell activation/deactivation command from a base station;
- performing activating/deactivating operation to the plurality of secondary cells according to the activation/deactivation command;
- and
- applying a same DRX (Discontinuous Reception) operation to the activated secondary cells and the primary cell by monitoring PDCCHs corresponding to the activated secondary cells and the primary cell in identical active time which comprises on duration time and inactivity time, wherein
- the activation/deactivation command is transmitted by the base station in consideration of at least one factors of:
- an amount of data for transmission, location of the electronic device, moving speed of the electronic device, signal quality and carrier coverage.
