Paging techniques for multi-beam access systems

A method for wireless communication, comprising:

• receiving, at a base station, a connection request from a user equipment (UE), the connection request including a UE identifier and a paging response indication;
• comparing the UE identifier with a paging identifier list;
• and
• transmitting a connection response based at least in part on a result of the comparison.

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• a processor;
• memory in electronic communication with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and operable, when executed by the processor, to cause the apparatus to:
• receive a compressed paging alert at a user equipment (UE);
• transmit, to a base station, a connection request based at least in part on the received compressed paging alert, wherein the connection request includes a UE identifier and a paging response indication;
• and
• receive a connection response to the connection request based at least in part on the transmitted connection request.
