Abstract

A base station capable of wireless communication with a plurality of subscriber stations within a coverage area of a network, where the base station is capable of transmitting, to a subscriber station, a traffic indication message with an indicator value, wherein the indicator value is used by both the base station and the subscriber station to dynamically adjust the length of the next discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle in an absence of an explicit signaling message from the base station.
