The method comprises controlling transmission, to the set of wireless devices, of a first paging message in a first paging period. The method comprises transmitting, to the set of wireless devices, in at least one physical signal between the first paging period and a second paging period succeeding the first paging period, control signaling indicating a change in paging of the second paging period, wherein the change in paging is with respect to the first paging period.

According to some embodiments, a method performed by a wireless device for wake up signaling (WUS) comprises obtaining a WUS capability configuration comprising a WUS monitoring span indicating a duration for which the wireless device is capable of monitoring for WUS and transmitting the WUS capability configuration to a network node.

A user equipment (UE) operating in a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode may receive a wake-up signal indicating that the UE may skip the next ON duration of the DRX cycle, i.e., the UE is instructed to not wake up during a next ON time during the DRX cycle to monitor communication signals, such as data signals or control signals. The UE may be configured to receive downlink (DL) positioning reference signals (PRSs), e.g., during the next ON duration of the DRX cycle. The UE respond to the PRS configuration and the wake-up signal by remaining in DRX sleep mode and not receiving the PRS or transitioning to DRX ON mode to receive the PRS during which the UE may monitor or not monitor communication signals. The location server may receive indications of the wake-up signal configuration and status from a base station or the UE.

A method is disclosed herein for reducing energy consumption in a wireless device. A wireless device (e.g., a user equipment) can provide an indication to a network node (e.g., a base station) to indicate that the wireless device will prioritize energy consumption reduction over some network requirements (e.g., latency and/or scheduling flexibility requirements). Accordingly, the wireless device can perform certain power-saving actions to reduce energy consumption. The network node, upon receiving the indication from the wireless device, can perform certain network-related actions to assist the wireless device in reducing energy consumption. As a result, it is possible for the wireless device to reduce energy consumption and complexity, thus helping to prolong battery life in the wireless device.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for high speed beam management. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving beamformed signals from at least one base station (BS); determining that the UE is in a high mobility state and one or more parameters associated with the high mobility state, based on the received signals; transmitting at least one of the one or more parameters to the at least one BS; and communicating with the at least one BS based on the one or more parameters.
