Wake-up signal error handling

An apparatus for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• a processor;
• memory coupled with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• receive a configuration for receiving a wake-up signal transmission for a plurality of UEs comprising the UE, the configuration comprising a size of the wake-up signal transmission and a first starting bit position indicating a portion of the wake-up signal transmission intended for the UE to read;
• receive, at the UE and based at least in part on the configuration, a wake-up signal indicating for the UE to wake up one or more cells of the UE to receive a transmission from a network device, the wake-up signal further indicating a configured offset between receiving the wake-up signal and receiving the transmission;
• and
• perform a mitigation operation to wake up the one or more cells of the UE, to release a connection with the network device, or both based at least in part on at least one error pattern of a plurality of error patterns occurring for the wake-up signal.

An apparatus for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• means for receiving a configuration for receiving a wake-up signal transmission for a plurality of UEs comprising the UE, the configuration comprising a size of the wake-up signal transmission and a first starting bit position indicating a portion of the wake-up signal transmission intended for the UE to read;
• means for receiving, at the UE and based at least in part on the configuration, a wake-up signal indicating for the UE to wake up one or more cells of the UE to receive a transmission from a network device, the wake-up signal further indicating a configured offset between receiving the wake-up signal and receiving the transmission;
• and
• means for performing a mitigation operation to wake up the one or more cells of the UE, to release a connection with the network device, or both based at least in part on at least one error pattern of a plurality of error patterns occurring for the wake-up signal.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), the code comprising instructions executable by a processor to:

• receive a configuration for receiving a wake-up signal transmission for a plurality of UEs comprising the UE, the configuration comprising a size of the wake-up signal transmission and a first starting bit position indicating a portion of the wake-up signal transmission intended for the UE to read;
• receive, at the UE and from based at least in part on the configuration, a wake-up signal indicating for the UE to wake up one or more cells of the UE to receive a transmission from a network device, the wake-up signal further indicating a configured offset between receiving the wake-up signal and receiving the transmission;
• and
• perform a mitigation operation to wake up the one or more cells of the UE, to release a connection with the network device, or both based at least in part on at least one error pattern of a plurality of error patterns occurring for the wake-up signal.
