PAGING AND DRX ENHANCEMENTS FOR EMTC-U (IOT-U)

Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for monitoring paging occasions. In one example, a mobile communication device defines a paging frame window (PFW) for a duration of time on a hop frequency or narrow band of frequencies indicated by a paging formula, and periodically wakes up to monitor the PFW for a page message. In another example, the mobile device receives a frame structure information at the start of a frame.
