    "patent_abstract": "A user equipment (UE) having enhanced configured grant transmission is provided. The UE operates by determining whether a wake-up signal (WUS) indicator is received. The UE also determines whether a wake-up trigger condition is met, and based on a determination that the trigger condition is met, it determines whether the UE is configured with a power-save wake up (ps-WakeUp) parameter. Based on a determination that the UE is configured with the ps-WakeUp parameter, the UE determines whether the ps-WakeUp parameter is set to false. Further, based on a determination that the ps-WakeUp parameter is set to false, and based on a determination that the WUS indicator is not received, the UE transitions from a sleep state to an active state during a next discontinuous reception (DRX) on-duration period.",
    "precision_class": "structural",
