Abstract
Method, apparatus and systems are disclosed that may be implemented in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) and/or a wireless access point associated with the WTRU. In one representative method, the WTRU may be in an inactive mode or an idle mode prior to a paging occasion (PO). The WTRU may be configured to detect transmission of a number of synchronization signal blocks or reference signals associated with early paging indication (EPI) downlink control information (DCI). Based on the detected transmissions, the WTRU may perform a blind decoding on transmitted EPI DCI or sequence set to determine whether the WTRU is being paged at the PO or not. The blind decoding may use a pattern which relates the detected synchronization signal blocks or reference signals to a number of transmissions of the EPI DCI associated with the PO. Paging of the WTRU may be used to determine a light/deep sleep state of the WTRU.
