an Rel-15 grouping WUS for performing the grouping wake-up on each UE divided group of an Rel-15 WUS group, and
an Rel-16 grouping WUS for performing the grouping wake-up on each UE divided group of an Rel-16 WUS group.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:
the WUS group is divided based on a time offset to obtain a UE divided group on which the grouping wake-up is performed,
the time offset comprises a time offset value between an ending time of the grouping WUS and a starting time of the PO corresponding to the grouping WUS, and
the time offset includes:
a first time offset timeoffsetDRX corresponding to discontinuous reception (DRX),
a second time offset timeoffset-eDRX-Short corresponding to enhanced DRX, and
a third time offset timeoffset-eDRX-Long.
5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein UEs that are grouped and configured after an Rel-16 WUS group, that is grouped based on the time offset, are further divided into groups.
6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the grouping WUS configuration includes:
a common WUS for waking up all UE divided groups of the Rel-16 WUS group at a same time, and
a partial WUS for waking up a part of the UE divided groups of the Rel-16 WUS group.
7. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the Rel-15 grouping WUS and the Rel-16 grouping WUS are multiplexed based on at least one of a time division multiplexing scheme, a single code division multiplexing scheme, and a single code division multiplexing plus time division multiplexing scheme.
8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein:
when the time division multiplexing scheme is used, UEs adopting the Rel-16 grouping WUS and UEs adopting the Rel-15 grouping WUS are multiplexed on different time-frequency resources,
when the single code division multiplexing scheme is used, the UEs adopting the Rel-16 grouping WUS and the UEs adopting the Rel-15 grouping WUS are multiplexed on a same time-frequency resource, and
when the single code division multiplexing plus time division multiplexing scheme is used, some of the UEs adopting the Rel-16 grouping WUS and all the UEs adopting the Rel-15 grouping WUS are multiplexed on a same time-frequency resource, and remaining UEs adopting the Rel-16 grouping WUS are multiplexed on one or more time-frequency resources different from the same time-frequency resource.
9. A user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more processors; and
at least one memory coupled to the one or more processors, the at least one memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the UE to:
receive, from a base station, system information including a grouping wake-up signal (WUS) configuration for performing a grouping wake-up on a WUS group associated with the UE, the grouping WUS configuration including a number of WUS groups;
monitor a grouping WUS for the WUS group associated with the UE according to the received grouping WUS configuration;
monitor a following paging occasion (PO) for detecting a paging message when the grouping WUS is detected; and
determine an index of the WUS group associated with the UE based on the number of WUS groups.
10. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the computer-executable instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the UE to:
determine the index of the WUS group associated with the UE, on a paging carrier where the UE is located, further based on a weight of the paging carrier and a maximum value in the weight.
11. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the grouping WUS includes:
an Rel-15 grouping WUS for performing the grouping wake-up on each UE divided group of an Rel-15 WUS group, and
an Rel-16 grouping WUS for performing the grouping wake-up on each UE divided group of an Rel-16 WUS group.
12. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein:
the WUS group is divided based on a time offset to obtain the UE divided group on which the grouping wake-up is performed,
the time offset comprises a time offset value between an ending time of the grouping WUS and a starting time of the PO corresponding to the grouping WUS, and
the time offset includes:
a first time offset timeoffsetDRX corresponding to discontinuous reception (DRX),
a second time offset timeoffset-eDRX-Short corresponding to enhanced DRX, and
a third time offset timeoffset-eDRX-Long.
13. The UE according to claim 12 , wherein UEs that are grouped and configured after an Rel-16 WUS group, that is grouped based on the time offset, are further divided into groups.
14. The UE according to claim 13 , wherein the grouping WUS configuration includes:
a common WUS for waking up all UE divided groups of the Rel-16 WUS group at a same time, and
a partial WUS for waking up a part of the UE divided groups of the Rel-16 WUS group.
15. The UE according to claim 11 , wherein the Rel-15 grouping WUS and the Rel-16 grouping WUS are multiplexed based on at least one of a time division multiplexing scheme, a single code division multiplexing scheme, and a single code division multiplexing plus time division multiplexing scheme.
