Method and user equipment for the support of a long DRX in an LTE active state in a wireless network and initiation of handover

摘要

A method of DRX signaling in a long-term evolution infrastructure between an evolved node B (eNB) and user equipment (UE), the method having the steps of providing a DRX value in a header of a medium access control protocol data unit (MAC-PDU); acknowledging the MAC-PDU; and activating, deactivating or reconfiguring DRX based on the provided DRX value.
