Methods for determining paging occasions in eDRX cycle and monitoring paging occasions based on CEL

摘要

Embodiments herein provide a method for determining PO by UEs in an eDRX cycle. The method includes determining PHs in the eDRX cycle based on estimated values of UE_ID_H and number of hyper-frames in the eDRX cycle. The method includes determining a first radio frame of PTW based on a determined value of N_PTW and i_eDRX. The method includes determining a last radio frame of PTW based on the first radio frame and length of the PTW. The method includes determining PFs in the PTW. The determination of PFs is based on the UE_ID. The method includes determining the POs, in each of the determined PFs, based on an index associated with each of the POs. The index associated with each PO is computed based on the UE_ID, number of frames available for paging in a DRX cycle, and number of sub-frames available for paging in each PF.
