Claim 26:
27. A base station (BS) within a wireless communication network, comprising:
a transceiver;
a memory; and
a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver and the memory, wherein the processor and the memory are configured to:
receive a channel state information report and a buffer status report in a random-access message from a user equipment (UE) operating in a power saving mode;
receive a request from the UE to remain in the power saving mode;
transmit an uplink grant in a random-access response message in response to receiving the random-access message including the channel state information report and the buffer status report;
transmit an acknowledgement multiplexed with an uplink grant in downlink control information (DCI) or in the random-access response message to allow the UE to remain in the power saving mode;
transmit a channel state information (CSI) request for a refined or compressed CSI report in the DCI or in the random-access response message; and
receive mobile originated (MO) data in response to transmitting the uplink grant.
