Paging Indication Segmentation for Redcap and General Terminals
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In wireless communication systems, particularly in 5G networks, Redcap terminals and general terminals share the same paging indication information, leading to unnecessary paging monitoring due to differing paging probabilities and transmission characteristics, resulting in inefficient power usage and reduced coverage capacity.
Innovation Solution
The method involves sending multiple paging indication information configured to instruct different types of terminals, such as Redcap terminals and general terminals, to monitor paging messages based on their specific types, using Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) with multiple information fields and sequences to determine appropriate monitoring instructions.

1Use of energy by moving object
If multiple paging indication information are sent to different terminal types, then power efficiency and monitoring accuracy are improved, but system complexity and signaling overhead increase
Solution Approach 1:
The paging indication information is segmented into multiple types (first paging indication information for Redcap terminals, second paging indication information for general terminals). Each terminal type receives customized paging indication information tailored to its specific characteristics, enabling optimized power management and monitoring strategies for each segment without imposing unnecessary complexity on other terminal types.
2Measurement precision
If paging indication information is customized for different terminal types, then monitoring accuracy and power usage are optimized, but signaling overhead and processing complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
Different paging indication information are transmitted to different terminal types based on their local characteristics. Redcap terminals receive first paging indication information optimized for their coverage enhancement needs, while general terminals receive second paging indication information optimized for their power efficiency needs. This local quality approach ensures each terminal type receives precisely the right information for its specific requirements, avoiding both over-provisioning and under-provisioning.
