WTRU power saving associated with idle mode
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are described herein for wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) power saving (e.g., for idle mode). A WTRU may determine a time window associated with one or more paging indicators. The WTRU may monitor for a paging indicator (e.g., a first paging indicator) in the time window. The WTRU may monitor for another paging indicator (e.g., a second paging indicator) in the time window. The WTRU may receive system information blocks (SIBs) if a wake up indication for the WTRU is received in a single paging indication and the paging indicator is the first paging indicator. The WTRU may monitor for a paging PDCCH at a monitoring occasion of a PO in a paging frame if the second paging indicator is received and includes an indication for the WTRU to wake up.
1 . A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), comprising:
a memory; and a processor configured to:
determine a time window associated with monitoring for one or more group-specific paging indicators, the time window occurring prior to a paging occasion for the WTRU;
monitor for the one or more group-specific paging indicators during the time window, wherein the WTRU determines that it has received the one or more group-specific paging indicators for a group including the WTRU based on a received group-specific paging indicator being associated with one or more of a cyclic shift or a scrambling sequence that is based on an identifier associated with the group;
monitor for physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmissions comprising paging information during the paging occasion for the WTRU on condition that the WTRU determines that it has received the one or more group-specific paging indicators and that the one or more group-specific paging indicators are associated with the cyclic shift or the scrambling sequence that is based on the identifier associated with the group; and
receive one or more cell-specific paging indicators, wherein the one or more cell-specific paging indicators indicate that a system information update is to be performed using one or more of a second cyclic shift or a second scrambling sequence, the one or more of the second cyclic shift or the second scrambling sequence associated with the one or more group-specific paging indicators.
2 . The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to cease monitoring for PDCCH transmissions on condition that the WTRU determines that it has not received the one or more group-specific paging indicators.
3 . The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the one or more group-specific paging indicator comprise configuration information including one or more of a time/frequency resource, beam related information, a type of paging indication, an associated paging occasion (PO) or a paging radio network temporary identifier (P-RNTI), timing information with respect to an associated PO and PDCCH monitoring occasion, and a repetition number.
4 . The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to monitor a subset of one or more paging indicators.
5 . The WTRU of claim 4 , wherein the processor is configured to monitor the subset of paging indicators based on one or more signal quality measurements.
6 . The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the scrambling sequence is generated based on a WTRU group identity.
7 . The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the scrambling sequence comprises a pseudo random sequence, the pseudo random sequence initialized based on one or more parameters.
8 . A method implemented by a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), the method comprising:
determining a time window associated with monitoring for one or more group-specific paging indicators, the time window occurring prior to a paging occasion for the WTRU;
monitoring for the one or more group-specific paging indicators during the time window, determining that the WTRU has received the one or more group-specific paging indicators for a group including the WTRU based on a received group-specific paging indicator being associated with one or more of a cyclic shift or a scrambling sequence that is based on an identifier associated with the group;
monitoring for physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmissions comprising paging information during the paging occasion for the WTRU on condition that the WTRU determines that it has received the one or more group-specific paging indicators and that the one or more group-specific paging indicators are associated with the cyclic shift or the scrambling sequence that is based on the identifier associated with the group; and
receiving one or more cell-specific paging indicators, wherein the one or more cell-specific paging indicators indicate that a system information update is to be performed using one or more of a second cyclic shift or a second scrambling sequence, the one or more of the second cyclic shift or the second scrambling sequence associated with the one or more group-specific paging indicator.
9 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising ceasing monitoring for PDCCH transmissions on condition that the WTRU determines that it has not received the one or more group-specific paging indicators.
10 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the one or more group-specific paging indicator comprise configuration information including one or more of a time/frequency resource, beam related information, a type of paging indication, an associated paging occasion (PO) or a paging radio network temporary identifier (P-RNTI), timing information with respect to an associated PO and/or PDCCH monitoring occasion, and a repetition number.
11 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising monitoring a subset of one or more paging indicators.
12 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising monitoring the subset of paging indicators based on one or more signal quality measurements.
13 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the scrambling sequence comprises a pseudo random sequence, the pseudo random sequence initialized based on one or more parameters.
