Abstract
A wireless device receives an uplink grant triggered in response to receiving a trigger during a validation duration. A determination is made that the wireless device is not in an Active Time, during at least a portion of the validation duration, by a process controlling monitoring of a control channel for: a pre-defined radio network temporary identifier (RNTI); and at least one RNTI. During the at least a portion of the validation duration: the control channel addressed to the pre-defined RNTI is monitored for the trigger; and the control channel addressed to the at least one RNTI is not monitored.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a wireless device, an uplink grant triggered in response to receiving a trigger during a validation duration;
- determining the wireless device is not in an Active Time, during at least a portion of the validation duration, by a process controlling monitoring of a control channel for:
- a pre-defined radio network temporary identifier (RNTI);
- and
- at least one RNTI;
- and
- during the at least a portion of the validation duration:
- monitoring the control channel addressed to the pre-defined RNTI for the trigger;
- and
- not monitoring the control channel addressed to the at least one RNTI.
A wireless device comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:
- receive an uplink grant triggered in response to receiving a trigger during a validation duration;
- determine the wireless device is not in an Active Time, during at least a portion of the validation duration, by a process controlling monitoring of a control channel for:
- a pre-defined radio network temporary identifier (RNTI);
- and
- at least one RNTI;
- and
- during the at least a portion of the validation duration:
- monitor the control channel addressed to the pre-defined RNTI for the trigger;
- and
- do not monitor the control channel addressed to the at least one RNTI.
