Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may release a connection with a first network entity and determine a first virtual coverage area of the UE based on a geographic location of the UE associated with the release of the connection. The UE may obtain a message that includes area information. The area information may be indicative of one or more second virtual coverage areas, which the UE may use in determining whether to monitor for a paging early indication (PEI). Based on the first virtual coverage area and the one or more second virtual coverage areas may monitor for a paging message, such as the PEI or downlink control information (DCI) associated with a paging occasion.
