Abstract
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are provided to implement a method for controlling discontinuous reception (DRX). A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may enter into a DRX state on a first cell layer. The WTRU may transmit, on a second cell layer, a DRX indication of the first cell layer. The WTRU may receive, on the second cell layer, a deactivation signal corresponding to the first cell layer. The WTRU may deactivate, based on the deactivation signal received on the second cell layer, the first cell layer. The WTRU may receive, on the second cell layer, an activation signal corresponding to the first, cell layer. The WTRU, based on the activation signal, may activate the first cell layer.
