Abstract
Various solutions for enhancements on paging early indication (PEI) design are described. An apparatus may receive a PEI from a network node of a wireless network. The PEI is included in a downlink control information (DCI) with a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a paging early indication-radio network temporary identifier (PEI-RNTI). The apparatus may monitor a paging occasion (PO) associated with the apparatus in a case that the PEI indicates there being a paging for a subgroup to which the apparatus belongs.
Claims16
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a processor of an apparatus, a paging early indication (PEI) from a network node of a wireless network, wherein the PEI is included in a downlink control information (DCI) with a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a paging early indication-radio network temporary identifier (PEI-RNTI);
- and
- monitoring, by the processor, a paging occasion (PO) associated with the apparatus in a case that the PEI indicates there being a paging for a subgroup to which the apparatus belongs.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a transceiver which, during operation, wirelessly communicates with a network node of a wireless network;
- and
- a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver such that, during operation, the processor performs operations comprising:
- receiving, via the transceiver, a paging early indication (PEI) from the network node of the wireless network, wherein the PEI is included in a downlink control information (DCI) with a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a paging early indication-radio network temporary identifier (PEI-RNTI);
- and
- monitoring, via the transceiver, a paging occasion (PO) associated with the apparatus in a case that the PEI indicates there being a paging for a subgroup to which the apparatus belongs.
The apparatus of claim 14, wherein the paging DCI comprises a DCI format 1_0.
