INTERACTION OF THE WAKE-UP SIGNAL (WUS) WITH DOWNLINK POSITIONING REFERENCE SIGNAL (PRS) RECEPTION IN A WIRELESS NETWORK

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.

METHODS AND DEVICES FOR REDUCING UE ENERGY CONSUMPTION

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.

In some embodiments, the method includes: transmitting, by an Access Point Station (AP STA) a first beacon; transmitting, by the AP STA, a second beacon indicating feature information; and transmitting, by the AP STA, a first follow-on beacon, the first follow-on beacon supplementing the feature information indicated in the second beacon.

Configuration for ungrouped wake up signal and group wake up signal

The present disclosure relates to transmitting and receiving a group wake-up signal (WUS) in conjunction with an ungrouped WUS. A base station may group one or more UEs in a UE group, while other UEs may not be assigned to a UE group. The configuration of WUS resources and WUS sequences for grouped UEs and other UEs is a challenge. The base station may transmit, to one or more UEs in the UE group, a resource allocation of a group WUS resource within a set of WUS resources associated with a paging occasion that is assigned to the one or more UEs in the UE group. A UE, after receiving the resource allocation, may determine a location of the group WUS resource within the set of WUS resources. The UE may monitor for a group WUS at the determined location in the resource allocation of the group WUS resource.
