APPARATUS, AND ASSOCIATED METHOD, FOR FORMING A PAGE MESSAGEINCLUDING A STRUCTURE OF PARTIAL IDENTIFIERS OF DIFFERING BIT LENGTHS USINGRANDOM OR PSEUDORANDOM NUMBERS AND FOR USING RANDOM ATI

摘要

Apparatus and an associated method is provided for facilitating paging of an access terminal in a radio communication system. A page message with par tial identities is generated that includes an access sequence ID. The access sequence ID is used by the access terminal when responding to a page. The a ccess terminal sends an access probe using the access sequence ID included i n the page. The page message includes a message structure with partial ident ities where the access sequence ID is conditionally included. If the access terminal is to use a regular pool of access sequence IDs, the access termina l is not sent an access sequence ID in the page.
