Cell Measurements Using Configured Reference Signals while in RRC Inactive Mode
First Claim
1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a processor configured to cause a wireless device to;
receive an indication of reference signal resources configured for use by the wireless device in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive mode from a cellular base station that provides a serving cell to the wireless device; and
perform cell measurements for the serving cell using the indicated reference signal resources while in the RRC inactive mode.

Abstract
This disclosure relates to performing cell measurements using configured reference signals while in an inactive state in a cellular communication system. A wireless device may receive an indication of reference signal resources configured for use by the wireless device in the inactive state from a cellular base station that provides a serving cell to the wireless device. The reference signal resources may include channel state information reference signal resources that are aligned in time and/or frequency with a control resource set provided for a wakeup occasion of the wireless device while in the inactive state. The wireless device may perform cell measurements using the indicated reference signal resources while in the inactive state.
