Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A base station may identify that data is available to be transmitted to a user equipment (UE) that is operating in a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode. The base station may transmit, based at least in part on the data being available, a first wakeup message using a first band supported by the UE. The base station may transmit, based at least in part on the data being available, a second wakeup message using a second band supported by the UE, the second band being different from the first band.
