Abstract: Systems and methods of reducing power consumption associated with paging or cDRX mode are described. A wake-up receiver (WUR) wakes up from an idle mode or cDRX state. Whether a wake-up signal (WUS) has been received by the WUR is determined. The WUS is a low-complexity signal that is less complicated than a PDCCH or PDSCH and is repeated multiple times at resource elements as indicated in a configuration from an eNB. If received, a baseband transceiver wakes up for reception of a PDCCH for the UE in a PO when the UE is in the idle mode or a PDSCH for the UE when the UE is in the cDRX state.

Abstract: Described herein are various wake-up procedures for user equipments (UEs). A UE may include a low power wake-up radio (LP-WUR) separate from a front end module (FEM). The LP-WUR may remain awake continuously (or at high-frequency intervals) and monitor for a wakeup signal, allowing the FEM to remain powered down in the absence of downlink data. When the LP-WUR detects a wakeup signal configured for the LP-WUR, the LP-WUR may be configured to wake up the FEM to receive incoming downlink data. Various network components may be configured to ensure UEs with LP-WURs receive corresponding wake-up signals.
