Abstract: Aspects and embodiments relate generally to mechanisms to support power saving in a wireless communication network and more particularly to supporting discontinuous reception of a wake-up signal receiver at an apparatus comprising a wake-up signal receiver and a main radio receiver. One aspect provides an apparatus, comprising: a main radio receiver; a wake-up signal receiver; and a timer. The wake-up signal receiver comprises: circuitry configured to receive at least a portion of a broadcast message; circuitry configured to evaluate the received portion of the broadcast message to determine a time marker; and circuitry configured to provide the time marker to the timer. The apparatus may comprise a UE and may therefore be configured to align internal time keeping with the time keeping of a network, thus allowing discontinuous reception and associated energy savings, without transmission of additional specific synchronisation messaging by a network.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided that includes means for obtaining a total delay error that when added to a reference time equivalent to a reference distance between first and second antennas equals a difference between a transmission time of a signal sent via the first antenna and a reception time of the signal received via the second antenna; means for measuring a frequency-variable first delay associated with reflection of a signal from a frequency-variable complex impedance of the first antenna; means for measuring a frequency-variable second delay associated with reflection of a signal from a frequency-variable complex impedance of the second antenna; means for estimating a first portion of the total delay error associated with the first antenna in dependence upon at least the first delay; and means for estimating a second portion of the total delay error associated with the second antenna in dependence upon at least the second delay.

Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage medium for coverage enhancement. In a method, a first apparatus receives, from a second apparatus, a first configuration for enabling relaying of a first wakeup signal transmitted by the second apparatus. Then, the first apparatus monitors, based on at least the first configuration, the first wakeup signal relayed via a third apparatus.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for enhanced cell (re) selection for low power wakeup signal (LP-WUS) mode of operation. A method may include receiving a low power wakeup signal from a network element. The method may also include evaluating a strength of the low power wakeup signal. The method may further include determining whether a cell selection criterion is satisfied based on a cell selection reception level value, a cell selection quality value, and the low power wakeup signal. In addition, the method may include carrying out a cell selection based on the determination of whether the cell selection criterion is satisfied.
