Abstract

A method in a communication device (200) providing data services over a packet access radio interface comprises monitoring (400) a control channel for signalling messages for data packets for the communication device, receiving data packets for a data service of a first type with a first periodicity and receiving (402) data packets for the data service of a second type with a second periodicity, the second periodicity being greater than the first periodicity. The method further comprises selecting (404) to not monitor the control channel for signalling messages for a period of time in response to detecting a data packet of the second type received by the communication device. A communication device is also described.
