A mobile station operating in the slotted mode, while monitoring the Quick Paging Channel, monitors the Paging Channel in its assigned slot at least once every N minutes, regardless of what the Quick Paging Channel indicates for that slot. The mobile station shall keep a counter for the number of false alarms that have occurred and another counter for the number misses that have occurred. The count of accumulated false alarms (QPCH_FA) and the count of accumulated misses (QPCH_MISS) are stored by the mobile station and will be sent to the base station when so requested. These two counters can be reset at powering-up or by the base station via messaging, or both. When the number of accumulated misses in a given time interval T1 exceeds a certain threshold Nm1, the mobile station may send a message to inform the base station of this. When the number of accumulated misses in a given time interval T2 exceeds a threshold Nm2, the mobile station shall monitor the Paging Channel in its assigned slots regardless of what the Quick Paging Channel indicates. T2 and Nm2 could be the same as or different from T1 and Nm1, respectively. The mobile station returns to follow the Quick Paging Channel indication as to whether to monitor the Paging Channel or not when the number of accumulated misses in a given time interval T3 drops below a certain threshold Nm3, or when Nh1 hits occur in a row, or both. |
