Various communication systems may benefit from appropriate configuration of reception states. For example, certain wireless communication systems, such as new radio, may benefit from control monitoring upon receipt of a discontinuous reception trigger. A method can including receiving, by a user equipment, configuration of a search space set of a downlink control resource set with a first monitoring periodicity. The method can also include receiving a trigger or the user equipment becoming active after a period without physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring. The method can further include, after the receiving of the trigger or the becoming active, modifying a monitoring periodicity of the search space set to a second monitoring periodicity.
