Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for paging early indication (PEI) configuration and monitoring procedures. In particular, the present disclosure provides techniques for configuring a user equipment (UE) for PEI monitoring. A method that may be performed by a network entity generally includes transmitting, to the UE, a configuration for paging early indication (PEI) occasions for the UE to monitor and transmitting, in at least one of the PEI occasions, a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with a PEI that indicates, for multiple paging occasions (POs), whether paging messages are scheduled for the UE in the multiple POs.
