Abstract
The present invention has disclosed a method for setting an active period starting point for a User Equipment (UE) in a Discontinuous Reception (DRX) mode, comprising steps of: a base station calculating and storing a position of the active period starting point for the UE based on predetermined parameters, so as to transmit data to the UE in a corresponding active period; the UE receiving Radio Resource Control (RRC) configuration information from the base station, and detecting whether the DRX mode is configured in it or not; the UE calculating its active period starting point based on predetermined DRX parameters in the received RRC configuration information; the UE starting DRX based on the calculated active period starting point; and the UE continuously monitoring a channel, but not starting DRX, when detecting that the DRX mode has not been configured in it. The present invention has also disclosed an apparatus for setting an active period starting point for a UE in a DRX mode.
