A method of wireless communication performed by a base station, comprising: transmitting a wakeup signal using a resource selected from one of: one or more first resources of a first resource pattern, or one or more second resources of a second resource pattern, wherein the resource is selected from the one or more first resources or the one or more second resources based at least in part on whether the wakeup signal is for a user equipment, UE, associated with a first UE group or a second UE group, wherein a preamble of the wakeup signal is configured to identify at least one of a cell identifier of a camping cell or a serving cell associated with the UE, and a UE group identifier associated with the UE, and wherein the preamble indicates at least one of at least a portion of the cell identifier and at least a portion of the UE group identifier; and transmitting a communication to the UE based at least in part on the wakeup signal, wherein the wakeup signal is configured to cause the UE to operate in an active mode over resources corresponding to the portion of the cell identifier or the portion of the UE group identifier indicated in the wakeup signal; and wherein the UE group identifier is identified based on the equation: UE _ Group _ ID = floor UE _ ID / N * Ns * Nn mod N _ WUS _ Groups, in which UE_Group_ID represents the UE group identifier, UE_ID represents the identifier of the UE, N represents a minimum value between a discontinuous reception, DRX, cycle and an nB value configured in SIB2, and Ns is a maximum value of 1 and the nB value, Nn represents a number of available paging narrowbands, and N_WUS_Groups represents a total number of UE groups. transmitting a wakeup signal using a resource selected from one of: one or more first resources of a first resource pattern, or one or more second resources of a second resource pattern, wherein the resource is selected from the one or more first resources or the one or more second resources based at least in part on whether the wakeup signal is for a user equipment, UE, associated with a first UE group or a second UE group, wherein a preamble of the wakeup signal is configured to identify at least one of a cell identifier of a camping cell or a serving cell associated with the UE, and a UE group identifier associated with the UE, and wherein the preamble indicates at least one of at least a portion of the cell identifier and at least a portion of the UE group identifier; and one or more first resources of a first resource pattern, or one or more second resources of a second resource pattern, wherein the resource is selected from the one or more first resources or the one or more second resources based at least in part on whether the wakeup signal is for a user equipment, UE, associated with a first UE group or a second UE group, wherein a preamble of the wakeup signal is configured to identify at least one of a cell identifier of a camping cell or a serving cell associated with the UE, and a UE group identifier associated with the UE, and wherein the preamble indicates at least one of at least a portion of the cell identifier and at least a portion of the UE group identifier; and transmitting a communication to the UE based at least in part on the wakeup signal, wherein the wakeup signal is configured to cause the UE to operate in an active mode over resources corresponding to the portion of the cell identifier or the portion of the UE group identifier indicated in the wakeup signal; and wherein the UE group identifier is identified based on the equation: UE _ Group _ ID = floor UE _ ID / N * Ns * Nn mod N _ WUS _ Groups, in which UE_Group_ID represents the UE group identifier, UE_ID represents the identifier of the UE, N represents a minimum value between a discontinuous reception, DRX, cycle and an nB value configured in SIB2, and Ns is a maximum value of 1 and the nB value, Nn represents a number of available paging narrowbands, and N_WUS_Groups represents a total number of UE groups.
