Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. For example, the described techniques provide for wireless device (e.g., wireless repeater, wireless relay device, smart repeater, etc.) operation in a low power state, and base station signaling for triggering of wireless repeater control interface configuration. For example, a wireless repeater may operate in a power saving mode and monitor for control information from a base station according to a low power state or a slow state (e.g., according to a long monitoring periodicity relative to a monitoring periodicity associated with a full power state or fast state). Upon detection of triggering signal from a base station, the wireless repeater may transition to monitoring for control information from the base station according to a fast state (e.g., according to a short, or more frequent, monitoring periodicity relative to a monitoring periodicity associated with a low power state).
