Reduced beam for paging

Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. For example, a user equipment (UE) may receive a paging indication over a physical downlink control channel. The UE may determine a position of the UE relative to a network entity. The UE may determine, based on the position of the UE, a subset of beams available to the network entity for transmitting a paging message. The subset of beams may be less than a quantity of beams available to the network entity for transmitting the paging message and a coverage area of the subset of beams may include the position of the UE. The UE may monitor, based on receiving the paging indication, the subset of beams over a physical downlink shared channel for the paging message.
