Techniques for dynamically adjusting Connected Mode Discontinuous Reception (CDRX) parameters are discussed herein. For example, a base station may receive information associated with downlink data to be sent to a user equipment (UE) and/or information associated with the UE itself. The base station may adjust CDRX parameters to be implemented on the UE based on the received information in order to maximize performance of the UE. In some examples, the base station may adjust CDRX parameters based on a traffic type (e.g., voice traffic, video traffic, data traffic, etc.) associated with the downlink data, UE state parameters associated with the UE, and/or Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) data associated with the UE.
