SYNCHRONIZATION SIGNAL BLOCK MONITORING OCCASION DESIGN FOR NON-TERRESTRIAL COMMUNICATIONS

Abstract:

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a non-terrestrial network (NTN) entity, a configuration message that indicates first paging monitoring occasions (MOs) for first consecutive synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) to be transmitted in a first set of beams and second paging MOs for second consecutive SSBs to be transmitted in a second set of beams. The UE may monitor for the first consecutive SSBs during the first paging MOs and for the second consecutive SSBs during the second paging MOs such that the first paging MOs overlap in time with the second paging MOs. Numerous other aspects are provided.
