METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR APPLYING A DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION (DRX) CYCLE IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method for and apparatus for applying a DRX (Discontinuous Reception) cycle in a wireless communication system is provided. A wireless device configures one among a short DRX cycle and a long DRX cycle by a rule/an indicator predetermined right after DRX configuration by RRC signaling. Discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle can be configured rapidly and the DRX operation without receiving a DRX Command MAC CE and waiting for a drx-InactivityTimer is expired can be provided.
