Abstract
A user equipment (UE) configured for discontinuous reception (DRX) operation, is disclosed. The UE comprises one or more processors configured to perform a static DRX update by aggregating all DRX timers configured for the UE during each slot of one or more consecutive slots associated with a radio frame structure, until it is determined that all the DRX timers are expiring in a select slot of the one or more consecutive slots. The one or more processors is further configured to compute an end of DRX active time, upon performing the static DRX update in the select slot; and perform a dynamic DRX event aggregation responsive to determining that all DRX events associated with physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring occasions (MOs) within the computed end of DRX active time have not been received.
