Abstract
A method and apparatus may include transmitting uplink communication via an uplink semi-persistent scheduling resource. The method may also include monitoring a control channel for downlink communication. The monitoring comprises monitoring for discontinuous reception. The monitoring is triggered by the transmitting of the uplink communication.
Claims22
A method, comprising:
- transmitting, by a user device, uplink communication via an uplink semi-persistent scheduling resource;
- and
- monitoring a control channel for downlink communication, wherein the monitoring comprises monitoring for discontinuous reception, and the monitoring is triggered by the transmitting of the uplink communication.
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code,
- the at least one memory and the computer program code configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus at least to
- transmit uplink communication via an uplink semi-persistent scheduling resource;
- and
- monitor a control channel for downlink communication, wherein the monitoring comprises monitoring for discontinuous reception, and the monitoring is triggered by the transmitting of the uplink communication.

An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code,
- the at least one memory and the computer program code configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus at least to
- receive uplink communication via an uplink semi-persistent scheduling resource from a user equipment;
- and
- transmit downlink communication on a control channel to the user equipment, wherein the control channel is monitored by the user equipment for discontinuous reception, and the transmitting is triggered by the receiving of the uplink communication.
