MULTI-CELL NOTIFICATION ZONE SINGLE FREQUENCY NETWORK PAGING AND MOBILITY

Last updated:

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may operate in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state of a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode. The UE may receive one or more synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) over a serving single frequency network (SFN) for a first notification zone, wherein the first notification zone comprises a plurality of cells. The UE may perform a channel measurement procedure using the received one or more SSBs. The UE may determine, based at least in part on a result of the channel measurement procedure, that a channel performance metric for the serving SFN of the first notification zone fails to satisfy a threshold. The UE may perform a cell reselection procedure to identify a cell of a neighboring SFN for a second notification zone that has a channel performance metric satisfying the threshold.
