DRX will not improve your DL throughput. What gunpowder wanted to say, is that short
DRX will not work, if you do not have long DRX enabled. Based on your setting, your
network is not using DRX at all.

You have to check following things to understand throughput:

1. Size of control area - PCFICH value - 1,2 or 3 symbols - smaller is better
2. amount of RB (resource blocks) being allocated for UE - if there is single user in the
cell it should be close 100%
3. CQI and MCS - CQI should be close to it max value (15). MCS - the max value is 28.
(MCS29-31 are used for retransmissions)
4. RI (rank indicator) - should be 2 in order to use Spatial multiplexing (dual-stream)
MIMO
5. you should expect HARQ retransmission (first retransmission/intial transmission) to be
about 10% - the optimum value for HARQ.

So achieved throughput on radio interface would be proportional to:

RI x MCS x #RB

it is not taking into account transport and Core Network - there might be bottlenecks
heavily limiting radio interface performance

To calculate the the throughput in LTE (for example in DL)

1) number of allocated PRB
2) number of Used RE (resource element in PRB) Some RE is used for RS, CCCH and so
on So they are not carrying user data
3) MCS (Modulation type and coding rate which is determined based on CQI)

So for a PRB: # REs is 12*7 (during 1 ms) (just ignore the used REs for CCCH and RS)
in each RE a symbol is send and bits/symbol depends on modulation scheme for 64QAM
, 16QAM and QPSK it is respectively 6,4,2
The used coding is also affecting your throughput for example the ratio is 2/3

in the end:
PRB throughput (Kbits/s) ~ 12*7*(bits/symbol)*(Coding ratio)
So in the best condition:
PRB throughput (Kbits/s)=168*6*1 ~ 1008 Kbits/s
e RE

Anyway it is not the approach to calculate the capacity as the used RE for user data
could be 80~85% of total available REs
Besides there is no independent resource for signaling and so the PRB is used for user
signaling and which another overhead to user DATA throughput
