VERFAHREN UND VORRICHTUNG ZUR MAXIMIERUNG DER STANDBY-ZEIT VON FUR DEN EMPFANG VON RUNDFUNK- DATABURST-MELDUNGEN KONFIGURIERTEN REMOTE- STATIONEN

摘要

A wireless telecommunications system that includes a base station, a plurality of remote stations, a first channel for general page messages containing paging information and broadcast databurst message references, and an auxiliary channel for broadcast databurst notification indicators for the purpose of increasing standby time in remote stations configured to receive broadcast databurs messages. The auxiliary channel in one embodiment is an uncoded, on-off keying (OOK) modulated direct sequence spread spectrum signal. In another embodiment the broadcast databurst notification indicators are one or more indicator bits set on the auxiliary channel to indicate to a remote station whether it needs to examine the first channel for broadcast databurst message references. In another embodiment, broadcast databurst notification indicators are multiplexed onto a quick paging channel along with incoming page notification indicators. In another exemplary embodiment a new channel is used for transmission of the broadcast databurst notification indicators.
