Methods and devices relating to discontinuous reception

摘要

Methods and devices relating to Discontinuous reception (DRX) mode are disclosed. In some embodiments a radio network controller detects that a User Equipment operating in a Discontinuous reception mode has performed an uplink transmission on a Random Access Channel, RACH and sends a signal to a Node B that received the uplink transmission indicating to the Node B that the UE has performed said uplink transmission and is continuously monitoring downlink transmissions, where the signal includes information identifying the UE.
