System and method for adjusting monitoring of timeslots during data transmission

摘要

A method for coordinating communications between a user equipment and a base station is presented. The method includes receiving an assignment of a first set of timeslots for uplink communications between the user equipment and the base station using an Extended Dynamic Allocation (EDA) resource allocation algorithm. The method includes, after receiving the assignment of the first set of timeslots for uplink communications, reducing a number of timeslots monitored by the user equipment to less than the first set of timeslots for uplink communications, and transmitting uplink data to the base station using a non-EDA resource allocation algorithm.
