Abstract

Techniques for paging user equipments (UEs) in a wireless communication network include clustering paging occasions of multiple UEs in a time domain on the network node side and broadcasting at least one reference signal from the network node for the UEs shortly before the clustered POs, thereby providing the power saving benefit for the UEs and without having to impose a much larger power consumption of the network node itself or cause the network node to be always on to broadcast the at least one reference signal. The at least one reference signal broadcasted may be based on SSBs, TRS and/or CSI-RS. Thus, the techniques allow the reference signals to be made available for the UEs in the RRCJDLE/RRCJN ACTIVE state too.
