Abstract
Disclosed is a method and apparatus for transmitting uplink data by a terminal performing a DRX operation in a mobile telecommunication system. According to the method and apparatus, when a UE transmits the uplink data, the UE variably controls given active and sleep periods in consideration of whether or not retransmission for the uplink data is performed, thereby more flexibly operating in the DRX mode.
Claims4
A method of transmitting uplink data by a terminal performing a Discontinuous Reception (DRX) operation in a mobile telecommunication system, the method comprising the steps of:
- as the uplink data occurs during the DRX operation, sending a scheduling request for requesting uplink resources for the uplink data and transitioning to an active state;
- transmitting the uplink data when the uplink resources are allocated;
- maintaining the active state during a first period after the uplink sources are allocated;
- maintaining the active state during a second period if downlink data is received during the first period;
- and
- ending the active state if the second period is over or a command for ending the active state is received and resuming the DRX operation.
A method of transmitting uplink data by a terminal performing a Discontinuous Reception (DRX) operation in a mobile telecommunication system, the method comprising the steps of:
- as the uplink data occurs during the DRX operation, sending a scheduling request for requesting uplink resources for the uplink data and transitioning to an active state;
- transmitting the uplink data when the uplink resources are allocated;
- if one of predetermined DRX resume triggering conditions is satisfied while the uplink data is transmitted, transmitting the uplink data including control information for requesting the DRX to resume;
- and
- resuming the DRX operation immediately.
