A method performed by at least one processor in a user equipment (UE) includes monitoring a downlink channel in accordance with one or more parameters associated with an on duration timer and an inactivity timer, the on duration timer specifying a time period in which the UE monitors the downlink channel, the inactivity timer specifying a time period in which the UE remains on after reception of downlink information in the downlink channel. The method includes determining whether a predetermined condition for modifying the monitoring of the downlink channel is satisfied. The method further includes, in response to determining the predetermined condition is satisfied, modifying the monitoring of the downlink channel such that power consumption of the UE is reduced.

Method and apparatus for power saving for extended reality (XR)

A method performed by at least one processor in a user equipment (UE), the method including receiving, from a base station over a channel, a plurality of reference signals corresponding to a state of the channel. The method further including measuring a subset of the received plurality of reference signals. The method further including transmitting, to the base station within a first time interval, a channel status report corresponding to the measuring of the subset of the received plurality of reference signals and a prediction of one more reference signals received by the UE after the first time interval.

Method and apparatus for beam management using AI/ML

A method performed by at least one processor in a user equipment (UE) includes receiving one or more resources from a base station operating in a non-energy saving mode. The method further includes receiving, from the base station, control information including in a downlink control channel, the control information indicating whether the base station is operating in an energy saving mode. The method further includes determining, based on the control information, whether the base station is operating in the energy saving mode. The method further includes modifying the receiving of the one or more resources in response to a determination the base station is operating in the energy saving mode.

Method and apparatus for network energy saving state indication

A method performed by at least one processor of a network node operating in a wireless communication network includes receiving data associated with a plurality of users. The method further includes performing, by a discrete Fourier transform (DFT) coder, a DFT transformation on the data associated with the plurality of users. The method further includes performing, on the output of the DFT coder by a subcarrier mapper, subcarrier mapping that maps the output of the DFT coder to a set of subcarriers. The method further includes performing an inverse DFT (IDFT) on the output of the subcarrier mapper. The method further includes transmitting, over the wireless communication network, the output of the IDFT as a DFT spread optical frequency division multiplexing (DFT-s-OFDM) signal.
