Beam direction assisted paging
A first RAN may determine beamforming information for a UE served by the first RAN. Then, the first RAN may transmit, to a second RAN or a core network, paging information for the UE served by the first RAN, wherein the paging information comprises the beamforming information for the UE. A core network component, e.g., an AMF, may receive the paging information comprising the beamforming information for the UE and may send a paging request to a second RAN for the transmission of a paging message to the UE, wherein the paging request is based on the received paging information. The second RAN may receive, from the first RAN or from the core network, paging information for the UE comprising beamforming assistance information for the UE. The second RAN may then transmit a paging message to the UE based on the beamforming assistance information.
