Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive downlink control information that schedules a paging message, wherein the downlink control information indicates whether a UE group associated with the UE is paged in the paging message. The UE may determine whether to decode the paging message based at least in part on the downlink control information that indicates whether the UE group associated with the UE is paged in the paging message. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Claims30
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- one or more memories comprising instructions;
- and
- one or more processors configured to execute the instructions and cause the apparatus to:
- receive downlink control information (DCI) that schedules a paging message, said DCI comprising a short message indicator, a short message field, and a reserved bits field, wherein at least one of the short message field or the reserved bits field indicates whether a user equipment (UE) group associated with the apparatus is to be paged in the paging message, wherein the short message indicator indicates which of the at least one of the short message field or the reserved bits field indicates whether the UE group associated with the apparatus is to be paged in the paging message;
- and
- selectively decode the paging message based at least in part on the DCI.
A base station for wireless communication, comprising:
- a transceiver;
- one or more memories comprising instructions;
- and
- one or more processors configured to execute the instructions and cause the base station to:
- transmit, via the transceiver, to a user equipment (UE), downlink control information (DCI) that schedules a paging message, said DCI comprising a short message indicator, a short message field, and a reserved bits field, wherein at least one of the short message field or the reserved bits field indicates whether a UE group associated with the UE is to be paged in the paging message, wherein the short message indicator indicates which of the at least one of the short message field or the reserved bits field indicates whether the UE group associated with the UE is to be paged in the paging message;
- and
- transmit, via the transceiver, the paging message to the UE.
A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
- receiving downlink control information (DCI) that schedules a paging message, said DCI comprising a short message indicator, a short message field, and a reserved bits field, wherein at least one of the short message field or the reserved bits field indicates whether a UE group associated with the UE is to be paged in the paging message, wherein the short message indicator indicates which of the at least one of the short message field or the reserved bits field indicates whether the UE group associated with the UE is to be paged in the paging message;
- and
- selectively decoding the paging message based at least in part on the DCI.
A method flofil for wireless communication at a base station, comprising:
- transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), downlink control information (DCI) that schedules a paging message, said DCI comprising a short message indicator, a short message field, and a reserved bits field, wherein at least one of the short message field or the reserved bits field indicates whether a UE group associated with the UE is to be paged in the paging message, wherein the short message indicator indicates which of the at least one of the short message field or the reserved bits field indicates whether the UE group associated with the UE is to be paged in the paging message;
- and
- transmitting the paging message to the UE.
