Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In some implementations, a method for managing a receiver for user equipment in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system includes receiving, when in a DRX state or sub-state, a message within a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) resource region of a first sub-frame. The message is associated with a PDSCH transmission in a second sub-frame different from the first sub-frame. When not in the DRX state or sub-state, a message is received within a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) resource region of a first sub-frame. The message associated with a PDSCH transmission in the first sub-frame.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed: 1. A method for managing a receiver for user equipment in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, comprising: receiving a command from an eNodeB (eNB) to transition to a discontinuous reception (DRX) state or sub-state, the DRX state or sub-state comprising a set of defined sub-frame instances during which the UE is required to receive between one and four Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols within a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) reso…
