Claim 0:
1. A method for wireless communications by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving first discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration parameters for communications with a first group of cells and second DRX configuration parameters for communications with a second group of cells, wherein the first DRX configuration parameters and the second DRX configuration parameters share common starting time parameters;
monitoring for communications by the first group of cells operating in first frequency resources based on the first DRX configuration parameters; and
monitoring for communications by the second group of cells operating in second frequency resources based on the second DRX configuration parameters,
wherein the first and second DRX configuration parameters include a common short DRX cycle timer such that the UE operates in a same DRX cycle for the first group of cells operating in the first frequency resources and the second group of cells operating in the second frequency resources, wherein the first group of cells comprises a first group of serving cells, and wherein the second group of cells comprises a second group of serving cells.
