Abstract  Abstract

The invention relates to a method for transmitting a periodic channel quality report (CSI) and/or a sounding reference symbol (SRS) from a UE to an eNodeB. To avoid double decoding at the eNodeB in transient phases a deterministic behavior of the UE is defined by the invention according to which the eNodeB can unambiguously determine whether the UE will transmit the CSI/SRS or not. According to one embodiment the UL grants and/or DL assignments received until and including subframe N?4 only are considered; UL grants and/or DL assignments received by the UE after subframe N?4 are discarded for the determination. Additionally DRX-related timers at subframe N?4 are considered for the determination. In a second embodiment DRX MAC control elements from the eNodeB instructing the UE to enter DRX i.e. become Non-Active are only considered for the determination if they are received before subframe N?4 i.e. until and including subframe N?(4+k).
