1. A method, comprising:
obtaining, by network equipment comprising at least one processor, first discontinuous reception interval duration information that represents a first duration of a first discontinuous reception interval used by a first user equipment;
obtaining, by the network equipment, second discontinuous reception interval duration information that represents a second duration of a second discontinuous reception interval used by a second user equipment, wherein the second discontinuous reception interval overlaps the first discontinuous reception interval; and
in response to the first discontinuous reception interval duration being determined to be shorter than the second discontinuous reception interval duration, prioritizing, by the network equipment, first allocations of transmission time slots during the first discontinuous reception interval to the first user equipment to have a higher priority than second allocations of the transmission time slots during the first discontinuous reception interval to the second user equipment, wherein the prioritizing results in a prioritized allocation; and
using, by the network equipment, the prioritized allocation to configure network transmissions via a network comprising the network equipment,
wherein the prioritized allocation is based at least in part on a data volume of data transmitted via the first user equipment, and wherein the data volume comprises an uplink data volume of uplink data transmitted from the first user equipment via the network.
