Method and mobile station for operating in accordance with a discontinuous transmission mode

摘要

A method (1100) and a mobile station (160) for operating in accordance with a discontinuous transmission mode are described herein. The mobile station (160) may include a first time constant generator (340), a second time constant generator (350), and a logic unit (330). The first time constant generator (340) may generate a first time constant in response to a first command from the logic unit (330) whereas the second time constant generator (350) may generate a second time constant in response to a second command from the logic unit (330). The first time constant is greater than the second time constant, which in turn, is associated with the discontinuous transmission mode.
