Techniques for power saving by remote wireless mobile devices are provided, in particular by stations (STAs) during downlink (DL) multiple-user multiple-input and multiple-output (MU-MIMO) transmissions in an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11ay network when reverse direction (RD) transmissions are either enabled and not enabled. Various embodiments enable each STA in a group of STAs to determine an order in which the STAs are requested to send a block acknowledgement (BACK) and which STAs will be granted an RD transmission. Further, a duration of each RD transmission is provided to each STA. Based on the provided information, each STA can determine times to enter a power saving mode. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Techniques are described to enable wake-up signal (WUS) error handling at a user equipment (UE). The UE may detect an error pattern when attempting to receive a WUS from a base station based on a configuration for receiving the WUS. For example, the base station may transmit the configuration for receiving the WUS to a set of UEs including the UE. Based on detecting the error pattern, the UE may perform a mitigation operation based on determining the error pattern, such as waking up multiple cells to receive a transmission indicated by the WUS, transmitting a radio link failure indication to the base station, etc. Additionally or alternatively, the base station may transmit multiple WUSs to the UEs, such as a first WUS according to the configuration and a second WUS according to a reconfiguration.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to beam configuration for RF repeaters. An RF repeater is configured to measure received power of one or more signals in the repeater for each of a plurality of beam directions. Further, the repeater determines a beam forming configuration for a fronthaul link between the repeater and at least one base station based on the measured received power of each of plurality of beam directions. The repeater may also be configured to determine beam configurations for access links between the repeater and user equipment.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, control signaling indicating a set of connected discontinuous reception (C-DRX) configurations. The set of C-DRX configurations may include a first C-DRX configuration and a second C-DRX configuration, where at least one C-DRX configuration in the set of C-DRX configurations is a UE-group common C-DRX configuration. The set of C-DRX configurations may correspond to a discontinuous transmission (DTX) cycle of the base station. The UE may select a C-DRX configuration from the set of C-DRX configurations based on receiving the control signaling from the base station. Accordingly, the UE may use the selected C-DRX configuration to communicate with the base station. The selected C-DRX configuration may enable the base station to operate with reduced power consumption and higher DTX efficiency, among other benefits.

A method for discontinuous reception and a device are provided. The method includes: a terminal device determines at least one target discontinuous reception (DRX) indication signal among multiple DRX indication signals and/or a time-frequency resource position occupied by the at least one target DRX indication signal, wherein the at least one target DRX indication signal is used for instructing the terminal device to perform a target behavior in one DRX cycle after receiving the at least one target DRX indication signal; and the terminal device detects a DRX indication signal sent by a network device according to the at least one target DRX indication signal and/or the time-frequency resource position occupied by the at least one target DRX indication signal.

An apparatus for a wireless switch. In some embodiments, the wireless switch includes a button, a battery, a radio, a memory, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor may be configured to operate the wireless switch in a wireless mesh network communication mode; and in response to a user input from the button, reboot the wireless switch; operate the wireless switch in a Bluetooth operating mode; receive a switch configuration; store the switch configuration in the memory; reboot the wireless switch a second time, and operate the switch in the wireless mesh network communication mode.

A method, performed by a network node, is disclosed, for configuring resources to be used for Wake-Up Signal, WUS, transmission to a plurality of wireless device groups in the communications network. The method comprises obtaining a number of wireless device groups supported by the communications network. The method comprises allocating, based on the obtained number of wireless device groups supported by the communications network, one or more active resources, out of a set of available resources, for WUS for the number of wireless device groups. The method comprises determining, based on a set of resource configuration criteria, a WUS resource configuration defining a mapping of the wireless device groups to the determined one or more active resources. The method comprises providing, to the wireless device, a set of resource configuration parameters indicative of the determined WUS configuration.

Aspects presented herein may enable a transmitting entity, such as a base station, to indicate to one or more receiving entities that SSBs of one or more cells (which may include the transmitting entity) are to be transmitted with modified configurations. The method may also enable the transmitting entity to transmit modified SSBs to enable network energy saving. In one aspect, a base station configures one or more cells of a plurality of cells with one or more modified SSBs associated with an ES mode. The base station transmits an indication of the one or more cells associated with a transmission of the one or more modified SSBs, the transmission of the one or more modified SSBs corresponding to an ES mode at the one or more cells, the one or more cells being associated with the base station or at least one other base station.

The present disclosure is related to a method and apparatus for monitoring paging messages. A method for monitoring paging messages includes receiving wake up signal (WUS) configuration information; identifying whether a WUS mechanism is enabled; and monitoring a paging message in a paging occasion (PO) based on predefined PO monitoring configuration information. Wherein the predefined PO monitoring configuration information is associated with whether the WUS mechanism is enabled and at least one of the WUS configuration information and channel quality. The present disclosure improves the efficiency of paging remote units in a PO.

Methods and apparatuses for performing multi-access point (MAP) coordination. A method for an AP includes transmitting to a first STA during a TXOP in a first TWT SP based on parameters of a first TWT operation, and receiving, from the first STA, an interference notification message about interference caused by a second AP in the MAP coordinating set of APs. The method further includes transmitting, to the second AP, a MAP coordination announcement that includes an indication that the first AP has obtained the TXOP and the parameters of the first TWT operation. The method further includes receiving, from the second AP, a MAP coordination response that indicates capabilities of the second AP and determining, based on the MAP coordination response, whether to perform MAP coordination with the second AP during the TXOP or to modify the parameters of the first TWT operation based on the interference notification message.
