monitoring on the anchor cell for inactivity_threshold_for_ue_drx_cycle subframes i e subframes 708 from the last transmission 706 on the anchor cell the wtru monitors an hs scch on the supplementary cell in accordance with the normal drx pattern i e monitors subframes 709 alternatively the drx patterns of the anchor and supplementary carriers may be linked together fig8 shows an example drx de activation on the anchor carrier after receiving data on the anchor carrier in accordance with this alternative in the example of fig8 the drx patterns for the anchor carrier and the supplementary carrier are aligned with 2 ms tti and ue_drx_cycle 4 the top rows 801 and 802 are node b transmissions on the anchor cell and the supplementary cell respectively the bottom rows 803 and 804 show drx patterns of the wtru on the anchor cell and the supplementary cell respectively the wtru listens to an hs scch on subframes 807 and 809 on both anchor and supplementary carriers in accordance with the configured drx pattern the node b transmits an hs scch via the anchor cell on subframes 805 and 806 once the wtru receives an hs scch on the subframe 805 the wtru deactivates the drx on both the anchor cell and the.
