  • Patent number: 11963103
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for paging are disclosed. According to an embodiment, a paging related entity obtains first information about a probability at which each of at least one terminal device is paged at a paging occasion (PO). The paging related entity obtains second information about a first power consumption and a second power consumption spent by each of the at least one terminal device for detecting a wake up signal (WUS) and a paging message respectively. The paging related entity determines, for multiple applicable WUS to PO mapping parameters, corresponding power consumptions spent by the at least one terminal device in a paging time window (PTW), based on the first and second information. The paging related entity determines, as a target WUS to PO mapping parameter to be applied to the at least one terminal device, one of the multiple applicable WUS to PO mapping parameters corresponding to a lowest power consumption in a PTW.
