Abstract
Aspects described herein relate to receiving communications in contention-based radio access technologies (RAT). Communication resources can be activated for monitoring one or more channels related to a contention-based RAT based at least in part on a discontinuous receive (DRX) cycle. The one or more channels related to the contention-based RAT can be monitored in one or more time periods following activating the communication resources to determine whether communications are received from an access network node. An on-duration timer during which the communication resources remain active to receive the communications in the contention-based RAT can be initialized based at least in part on determining that the communications are received from the access network node. The communication resources can be deactivated following expiration of the on-duration timer.
