29. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
detecting, using a low-power receiver of the UE, a low-power synchronization signal (LP-SS), wherein the LP-SS is associated with a first coverage area that is larger than a second coverage area associated with a legacy synchronization signal block (SSB); and
monitoring, using the low-power receiver, for a low-power wake up signal (LP-WUS) based at least in part on the LP-SS, wherein the LP-WUS is associated with a third coverage area that is larger than a fourth coverage area associated with a legacy wake up signal (WUS).
