Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a communication method and apparatus applied to a user equipment, where the method includes: monitoring a paging indication physical downlink control channel PDCCH; acquiring paging indication information if the paging indication PDCCH is detected; and determining, according to the paging indication information, whether there is a need to monitor a paging PDCCH. The method is used to reduce the number of times a user equipment monitors a paging PDCCH or receives a paging message, thereby saving power of the user equipment.

Disclosed is a method performed by a network node, for an enhanced paging of a wireless device of a set of wireless devices. 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. The method comprises controlling, in accordance with the indicated change, transmission, to the set of wireless devices, of a second paging message in the second 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.

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.

The present disclosure provides a DRX state configuration method, a UE and a network side device. The DRX state configuration method for the UE includes: receiving indication information transmitted by a network side device, the indication information being used to indicate at least one first DRX group for the UE to enter a DRX inactive state; and configuring the at least one first DRX group to enter the DRX inactive state in accordance with the indication information.

The present disclosure discloses a method and device for transmitting and receiving data in an inactive state, and user equipment (UE). The method comprises: UE receiving configuration information from a network side apparatus, the configuration information being used to indicate whether at least one of at least one logical channel and a DRB of the UE supports data transmission in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state; when the configuration information indicates that the at least one logical channel supports the data transmission in the RRC inactive state, the UE transmitting data to be transmitted of the at least one logical channel; and when the configuration information indicates that the DRB supports the data transmission in the RRC inactive state, transmitting data to be transmitted on a logical channel associated with the DRB.

This application discloses a radio resource management measurement method, a terminal device, and a network device. The RRM measurement method includes: obtaining indication information from a network, where the indication information is used to indicate a type of RRM measurement behavior of a terminal device in a highspeed scenario, and the type of RRM measurement behavior includes a first type of RRM measurement behavior or a second type of RRM measurement behavior; and in a case that the indication information indicates the first type of RRM measurement behavior, starting RRM measurement of an intra-frequency cell before an eDRX cycle arrives, and receiving a paging message when the eDRX cycle arrives. Therefore, power consumption of the terminal device can be reduced in embodiments of this application.

Embodiments of this application provide a Wi-Fi communication method and apparatus, and relate to the wireless communication field. A station may obtain detection information including a start time point at which an access point actually sends a beacon packet to the station for one time, obtain a low power consumption parameter based on the detection information and a first time interval, and receive the beacon packet from the access point based on the low power consumption parameter. The low power consumption parameter includes an actual wakeup periodicity of the station and an actual receive window length within which the station receives the beacon packet, or the low power consumption parameter includes an actual wakeup periodicity of the station, and the actual wakeup periodicity of the station is greater than a preconfigured wakeup periodicity of the station.

This application provides a data transmission method and apparatus. The method includes: receiving downlink data, where the downlink data is used to be sent to a terminal device; receiving first information from a second network device, where the first information is used to determine a time point for sending the downlink data to the second network device; and sending the downlink data to the second network device based on the first information, to avoid directly sending the downlink data to the second network device after receiving the downlink data, thereby relieving storage burden of the second network device.
