- the terminal when a terminal communicates with a network device, in order to save unnecessary power consumption of the terminal and reduce the monitoring time of the terminal, the terminal can apply a discontinuous reception mechanism on the Uu interface (the interface between the terminal and the network device) to help A terminal in a radio resource control (RRC) connected state saves energy.
- RRC radio resource control
- the basic principle of DRX is: when a terminal communicates with a network device, the network device may have data transmission for a period of time, and the network device may have no data to transmit to the terminal for a long period of time next. In the case that the network device does not send data to the terminal, if the terminal still keeps the monitoring state, it is very power-consuming for the terminal. Therefore, when the terminal does not receive data, the power consumption of the terminal can be reduced by making the terminal stop monitoring the physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), thereby improving the battery life of the terminal.
- PDCCH physical downlink control channel
- the discontinuous reception Discontinuous Reception (DRX) function is defined.
- a terminal using the DRX mechanism monitors the PDCCH in some time periods and does not monitor the PDCCH in other time periods. Therefore, DRX reduces the power consumption of the terminal by controlling the terminal not to monitor the PDCCH for some period of time.
- the DRX mechanism configured by the network device for the terminal also includes the corresponding DRX parameters.
- the parameters and functions of the parameters mainly included in the DRX mechanism are as follows:
- -DRX-onDurationTimer The duration at the beginning of a DRX Cycle (the duration at the beginning of a DRX Cycle). At the beginning of the DRX cycle, the duration of the on duration can be considered that the terminal is in an active state during the operation of the DRX-on duration timer.
- drx-SlotOffset the delay before drx-onDurationTimer is turned on.
- drx-InactivityTimer After the terminal successfully decodes a PDCCH that schedules the initial transmission of new data on the Uu port, it continues to be in the active state, that is, when the terminal is scheduled, the drx-InactivityTimer should be turned on. In order to prolong the time that the terminal is in the active state, the corresponding scenario can be understood that when the terminal is currently scheduled, it is likely to continue to be scheduled in the next time period, so the terminal needs to remain active to wait for data to be received.
- drx-LongCycleStartOffset Indicates the long DRX cycle (Long DRX Cycle) and the drx start offset (drx-StartOffset).
- Long DRX Cycle specifies the number of subframes occupied by the long cycle/ms
- drx-StartOffset specifies the start subframes of the long DRX cycle and the short DRX cycle.
- drx-RetransmissionTimerDL the maximum duration before the terminal receives the downlink retransmission data of the Uu interface.
- drx-RetransmissionTimerUL the maximum duration before the terminal receives the uplink retransmission resources of the Uu port (the maximum duration until a grant for UL retransmission is received), During the drx-RetransmissionTimerUL operation, the terminal performs uplink data retransmission.
- -DRX short cycle (drx-ShortCycle) (optional): that is, the length of the short DRX cycle (Short DRX cycle), in subframes/milliseconds.

- the duration before the data can be understood as a time window. During this time window, the base station will not perform downlink retransmission for the data packet that currently fails to transmit. It needs to wait for the drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL to expire before the terminal can continue to receive.
- Downlink retransmission data of the packet (drx-HARQ-RoundTripTime-TimerDL, drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL) (for each downlink HARQ process except the broadcast process): the terminal expects to receive downlink HARQ retransmission on the Uu interface
- the duration before the data can be understood as a time window. During this time window, the base station will not perform downlink
- the terminal can start to receive downlink retransmission data, and the drx-RetransmissionTimerDL is enabled. That is, the minimum duration before a downlink assignment for HARQ retransmissions may occur.
- drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerUL the duration before the terminal expects to receive uplink HARQ retransmission resources on the Uu interface, which can be understood as a time window. Within this time window, the terminal cannot perform uplink retransmission of the current data packet that fails to transmit, and needs to wait for the drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerUL to expire before the terminal can continue to upload the data of the data packet.
- the terminal can start to perform uplink retransmission, then enable drx-RetransmissionTimerUL, that is, the minimum duration before an uplink HARQ retransmission grant may occur.

- the terminal if the terminal receives a PDCCH indicating a new transmission during the ON duration, the terminal starts or restarts the drx-InactivityTimer in the first symbol after the PDCCH reception ends.
