Abstract
A method for controlling a discontinuous reception operation in a beam forming communication system includes receiving a discontinuous reception operation request message from the mobile station; determining whether a discontinuous reception operation of the mobile station is set, based on the number of subframes necessary for measuring a beam of the base station by the mobile station and a maximum allowable delay time of a service provided for the mobile station, and when it is determined that a discontinuous reception operation is set for the mobile station, transmitting a response message containing information on a beam measuring duration and a feedback duration to the mobile station. Other embodiments including a base station and a mobile station are also disclosed.
