Claim 16:
17. An apparatus to be implemented in a user equipment, the apparatus comprising:
activation means for activating radiofrequency means to perform one or more cell measurements during a measurement period, and for activating the radiofrequency means to monitor for paging information during a paging occasion, “PO”, wherein the one or more cell measurements include measurement of a synchronization signal block, “SSB”, and wherein the activation means, during the measurement period, skips activation of the radio frequency means to skip measurement of one or more leading symbols of the SSB or skip measurement of one or more ending symbols of the SSB; and
the radiofrequency means for receiving signaling for the one or more cell measurements during the measurement period, and for monitoring for the paging information during the PO, wherein the measurement period and the PO take place during a discontinuous reception, “DRX”, cycle while the user equipment is operating in an idle mode.
