Method for processing paging information in a wireless mobile communication system

摘要

In a wireless mobile communications system, a method for processing paging information allows the operations of a mobile terminal to be simplified and permits efficient use of resources for the mobile terminal. The network instructs in advance, the transmission of control information, such as a particular paging message, a notification message, system information and the like, via a single indicator channel. The mobile terminal receives this single indicator channel and uses the indicator information that was transmitted via the indicator channel in order to receive the control information.

1. A method of transmitting a control message at a network in a mobile communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting control information on a single control channel to at least one user equipment to inform the at least one user equipment of transmission of at least one control message of one type among at least two types of control messages, the control information comprising scheduling information for the at least one control message, wherein:
the at least one control message and the scheduling information are transmitted during a same sub-frame;the scheduling information comprises information related to where each resource block (RB) is located in a specific domain having time and frequency;a first type of the at least two types of control messages is a system information message and a second type of the at least two types of control messages is related to a paging message;the control information further comprises indication information that indicates whether the at least one control message is the first type or the second type; andthe indication information is a specific identifier that informs the at least one user equipment that an upcoming transmission on a shared channel is the first type control message when the first type control message will be transmitted on the shared channel, and that informs the at least one user equipment that the upcoming transmission on the shared channel is the second type control message when the second type control message will be transmitted on the shared channel; and transmitting the at least one control message, which is the first type or the second type as indicated by the control information, to the at least one user equipment, wherein system information of the system information message is divided into primary system information and non-primary system information, and wherein the primary system information is transmitted statically via a broadcast channel and the non-primary system information is transmitted dynamically via the shared channel.
