Abstract

The present disclosure provides technologies and techniques for power optimization of vulnerable road user (VRU) devices in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)/Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) systems/networks, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and/or other small form-factor devices. The power optimizations involve disabling or placing the communications functionality of a device in a sleep or inactive mode in situations where such functionality is not needed. The power optimization techniques include medium access control (MAC) optimized discontinuous reception (DRX) configurations, location-based communication, wake-up signaling communication, contextual activation and parameterization of device communication, slot reservation communication. Additional aspects of devices and communication configurations and arrangements may be described.
