Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method and a device used for discontinuous reception. A first node transmits a first signaling, the first signaling indicating a current parameter of a first timer, and monitors a target signal in a first time-resource set; when the target signal is detected in the first time-resource set and the first timer is in a stopped state, starts the first timer; when the first timer is in a running state, updates the first timer in each candidate slot; wherein the current parameter of the first timer is related to at least one of a state of the first timer or a value of the first timer. The present disclosure prevents misunderstanding of the first time-frequency resource pool, thus reducing power consumption and radio interference.

Claims (30)

1. A node for wireless communications, comprising:

a receiver, receiving a first signaling, the first signaling indicating a current parameter of a first timer that comprises an expiration value of the first timer; and

a transmitter, transmitting a radio signal in a first slot;

wherein:

the current parameter of the first timer is used for determining the first slot;

the current parameter of the first timer is related to at least one of a state of the first timer or a value of the first timer;

when a target signal is detected in a first time-resource set and the first timer is in a stopped state, the first timer is started;

when the first timer is in a running state, the first timer is updated in each candidate slot; and

when the target signal is detected on either Downlink or Sidelink, the target signal is detected in the first time-resource set.

2. The node according to claim 1 , wherein the first timer is a drx-InactivityTimer, or, the first time-resource set is an active time of the first node.

3. A node for wireless communications, comprising:

a receiver, receiving a first signaling, the first signaling indicating a current parameter of a first timer that comprises a difference between the value of the first timer and an expiration value of the first timer; and

a transmitter, transmitting a radio signal in a first slot;

wherein:

the current parameter of the first timer is used for determining the first slot;

the current parameter of the first timer is related to at least one of a state of the first timer or a value of the first timer;

when a target signal is detected in a first time-resource set and the first timer is in a stopped state, the first timer is started;

when the first timer is in a running state, the first timer is updated in each candidate slot; and

when the target signal is detected on either Downlink or Sidelink, the target signal is detected in the first time-resource set.

4. The node according to claim 3 , wherein the first timer is a drx-Inactivity Timer, or, the first time-resource set is an active time of the first node.

5. A method in a node for wireless communications, comprising:

receiving a first signaling, the first signaling indicating a current parameter of a first timer that comprises an expiration value of the first timer; and

transmitting a radio signal in a first slot;

wherein the current parameter of the first timer is used for determining the first slot; the current parameter of the first timer is related to at least one of a state of the first timer or a value of the first timer; when a target signal is detected in a first time-resource set and the first timer is in a stopped state, the first timer is started; when the first timer is in a running state, the first timer is updated in each candidate slot; when the target signal is detected on either Downlink or Sidelink, the target signal is detected in the first time-resource set.

6. The method in a node for wireless communications according to claim 5 , wherein the first timer is a drx-InactivityTimer, or, the first time-resource set is an active time of the first node.

7. A method in a node for wireless communications comprising:

receiving a first signaling, the first signaling indicating a current parameter of a first timer that comprises a difference between the value of the first timer and an expiration value of the first timer; and

transmitting a radio signal in a first slot;

wherein the current parameter of the first timer is used for determining the first slot; the current parameter of the first timer is related to at least one of a state of the first timer or a value of the first timer; when a target signal is detected in a first time-resource set and the first timer is in a stopped state, the first timer is started; when the first timer is in a running state, the first timer is updated in each candidate slot; when the target signal is detected on either Downlink or Sidelink, the target signal is detected in the first time-resource set.

8. The method in a node for wireless communications according to claim 7 , wherein the first timer is a drx-InactivityTimer, or, the first time-resource set is an active time of the first node.
