Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method performed by a network node in a radio access network (RAN) for selective paging of a plurality of user equipments (UEs) operating in a cell served by the network node. The method comprises assigning the plurality of UEs to a plurality of paging subgroups based on one or more operating parameters of the respective UEs, wherein the paging subgroups are associated with a first sequence of paging occasions (POs) to which all of the UEs are assigned. The method comprises transmitting a paging indicator during a particular PO of the first sequence. The paging indicator indicates which of the paging subgroups associated with the particular PO should receive a paging message from the network node. The method further comprises transmitting the paging message within the cell.
