Abstract

A method for managing sleep duration in a 5th Generation (5G) and a user equipment (UE) are provided. The method includes sending, by the UE, a plurality of data packets to a network in a connected mode discontinuous reception (cDRX) cycle and detecting, by the UE, an initiation of a retransmission timer associated with the plurality of data packets. The method includes determining, by the UE, if a retransmission of at least one data packet the plurality of data packets is required, and causing, by the UE, to sleep before an expiry of the retransmission timer, in response to determining that the retransmission of the at least one data packet of the plurality of data packets is not required.
