Methods for physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) based wake up signal (WUS) configuration

A wireless device configured to communicate with a network node, the wireless device configured to:

• obtain a configuration comprising a first radio network temporary identifier, RNTI, defined to address a group of wireless devices for physical downlink control channel, PDCCH, based wake-up signal, WUS, operation;
• receive signaling including a wake-up signal, WUS, in a first WUS monitoring occasion associated with a first group of wireless devices that includes at least the wireless device and descramble a cyclic redundancy check, CRC, in the signaling using the first RNTI defined to address a group of wireless devices, the WUS being configured to cause the first group of wireless devices to perform at least one action;
• and
• perform the at least one action.

A method implemented by a wireless device that is configured to communicate with a network node, the method comprising:
