Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A periodic reception mode may be activated for a user equipment (UE), such as by receiving an activation signal. The UE may be configured with or otherwise determine a periodic schedule associated with the periodic reception mode. The base station may combine multiple packets of data and may transmit the combined data packet in accordance with the periodic schedule. The UE may identify a duration for an active state and a duration for an idle state based on the periodic schedule. The UE may monitor a control channel in accordance with a duration for the active state associated with the periodic reception mode and may sleep in accordance with a duration for the idle state associated with the periodic reception mode.
