Abstract
Wireless communications for paging assistance are described. Paging assistance information may comprise one or more beam parameters to provide beam-based paging for a wireless device. One or more devices may use beam-based paging to reduce usage of wireless resources.
Claims42
A method comprising:
- sending, by a base station to a core network entity, paging assistance information, associated with a wireless device, that comprises:
- a cell identifier of a cell;
- and
- at least one beam index of at least one beam of the cell;
- receiving, by the base station from the core network entity, a first paging message comprising:
- a wireless device identifier of the wireless device;
- and
- the paging assistance information;
- and
- sending, by the base station via the at least one beam and based on the first paging message, a second paging message associated with the wireless device.
7 more elements
A method comprising:
- sending, by a base station to a core network entity, a first message indicating a context release associated with a wireless device, wherein the first message comprises paging assistance information comprising:
- a cell identifier of a cell;
- and
- a beam index of a beam of the cell;
- and
- wherein the sending the first message is based on at least one of:
- a radio resource control connection release;
- or
- an indication indicating the context release;
- and
- receiving, by the base station from the core network entity, a paging message that is based on the paging assistance information.
8 more elements
A computing device comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the computing device to:
- send, to a core network entity, paging assistance information associated with a wireless device, that comprises:
- a cell identifier of a cell;
- and
- at least one beam index of at least one beam of the cell;
- receive, from the core network entity, a first paging message comprising:
- a wireless device identifier of the wireless device;
- and
- the paging assistance information;
- and
- send, via the at least one beam and based on the first paging message, a second paging message associated with the wireless device.
10 more elements
A computing device comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the computing device to:
- send, to a core network entity, a first message indicating a context release associated with a wireless device, wherein the first message comprises paging assistance information comprising:
- a cell identifier of a cell;
- and
- a beam index of a beam of the cell;
- and
- wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors,
- cause the computing device to send the first message by sending the first message based on at least one of:
- a radio resource control connection release;
- or
- an indication indicating the context release;
- and
- receive, from the core network entity, a paging message that is based on the paging assistance information.
