The present disclosure relates to a mobile terminal, a base station, an operating method for a mobile terminal and an operating method for a base station. The mobile terminal is for communicating in a mobile communication system with a base station using at least one of a first bandwidth part, BP1, and a second bandwidth part, BP2. Both, the first and second bandwidth part BP1 and BP2 are within a system bandwidth, wherein the first bandwidth part, BP1, is smaller than the second bandwidth part, BP2. The mobile terminal comprises a transceiver which, in operation, receives a configuration of a discontinuous reception, DRX, cycle. Further, the mobile terminal comprises a processor which, in operation, configures, upon reception of the configuration of the DRX cycle, the a downlink communication during at least one of the communication periods within the DRX cycle to use a specific one of at least the first bandwidth part, BP1, and the second bandwidth part, BP2.
