US Patent 11178722 Discontinuous reception

A terminal (130) includes an interface configured to wirelessly communicate with a network (100) having a plurality of base stations (112, 112-1, 112-2), and at least one processor configured to control the interface to operate according to a first discontinuous reception cycle (421), to detect terminal-initiated mobility (473) from a source base station (112, 112-1, 112-2) of the plurality of base stations (112, 112-1, 112-2) to a target base station (112, 112-1, 112-2) of the plurality of base stations (112, 112-1, 112-2), and to control the interface to operate according to a second discontinuous reception cycle (422) in response to the terminal-initiated mobility (473).
