1. A method comprising:
connecting, by a user equipment (UE), to a cellular network in a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode;
determining, by the UE, that a media access control (MAC) entity of the UE will be in DRX Active Time during a portion of a scheduled wakeup indication monitoring time for monitoring for a first wakeup indication, wherein the first wakeup indication indicates the UE to monitor a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) reception during a first DRX ON period following the scheduled wakeup indication monitoring time of the first wakeup indication; and
not monitoring, by the UE, the PDCCH for reception of the first wakeup indication, during the portion of the scheduled wakeup indication monitoring time that overlaps a duration during which the UE will be in the DRX Active Time.
