Event-based paging, event-based notifications and paging resource coordination

A method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• receiving, from a node, a paging message including at least one reference value associated with an event;
• determining to respond to the paging message based at least in part upon the presence at least one reference value within the paging message;
• and
• transmitting a response to the paging message, the response comprising UE-identifying information and the at least one reference value.

A method of wireless communication by a base station, comprising:

• receiving, from a relay node, a request for paging resources;
• determining an allocation of a set of paging resources including at least one paging resource to the relay node in response to the request;
• and
• transmitting an indication of the allocated set of paging resources to the relay node,
• wherein the base station is precluded from transmission of any paging messages on the allocated set of paging resources.

A user equipment (UE), comprising:

• means for receiving, from a node, a paging message including at least one reference value associated with an event;
• means for determining to respond to the paging message based at least in part upon the presence at least one reference value within the paging message;
• and
• means for transmitting a response to the paging message, the response comprising UE-identifying information and the at least one reference value.

A base station, comprising:

• means for receiving, from a relay node, a request for paging resources;
• means for determining an allocation of a set of paging resources including at least one paging resource to the relay node in response to the request;
• and
• means for transmitting an indication of the allocated set of paging resources to the relay node,
• wherein the base station is precluded from transmission of any paging messages on the allocated set of paging resources.

A node, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
• transmit a paging message including at least one reference value associated with an event;
• and
• receive a set of responses to the paging message from a set of UEs including at least one UE, each response comprising UE-identifying information and the at least one reference value associated with the event.

A user equipment (UE), comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
• receive, from a node, a paging message including at least one reference value associated with an event;
• determine to respond to the paging message based at least in part upon the presence at least one reference value within the paging message;
• and
• transmit a response to the paging message, the response comprising UE-identifying information and the at least one reference value.

A user equipment (UE), comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
• determine at least one reference value associated with an event;
• and
• transmit, from the UE to a base station, at least one Message-A comprised by a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) of a 2-Step Random Access Channel (RACH) procedure, wherein the Message-A includes the at least one reference value associated with the event.

A base station, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
• receive, from a user equipment (UE), at least one Message-A comprised by a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) of a 2-Step Random Access Channel (RACH) procedure, wherein the Message-A includes the at least one reference value associated with an event;
• and
• perform at least one action related to the event based on the at least one reference value.

A base station, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
• receive, from a relay node, a request for paging resources;
• determine an allocation of a set of paging resources including at least one paging resource to the relay node in response to the request;
• and
• transmit an indication of the allocated set of paging resources to the relay node,
• wherein the base station is precluded from transmission of any paging messages on the allocated set of paging resources.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions stored thereon, for causing at least one processor in a user equipment (UE) to:

• receive, from a node, a paging message including at least one reference value associated with an event;
• determine to respond to the paging message based at least in part upon the presence at least one reference value within the paging message;
• and
• transmit a response to the paging message, the response comprising UE-identifying information and the at least one reference value.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions stored thereon, for causing at least one processor in a base station to:

• receive, from a relay node, a request for paging resources;
• determine an allocation of a set of paging resources including at least one paging resource to the relay node in response to the request;
• and
• transmit an indication of the allocated set of paging resources to the relay node,
• wherein the base station is precluded from transmission of any paging messages on the allocated set of paging resources.
