Method for enabling an MSS to enter an idle mode in a wireless metropolitan area network by a network side

摘要

The present invention provides a method as regards how a network side gets a MSS into the idle mode in a wireless MAN, including: the PA/BS sends a DREG_CMD to the MSS; the MSS sends a DREG_REQ message to the PA/BS, according to the DREG_CMD message, requesting to enter the idle mode; the PA/BS releases the link of the MSS and updates the data of the anchor PC/LR after receiving the DREG_REQ message. The present invention specifies the process of a MSS entering the idle mode initiated by the network and the settings of relevant parameters, thus enhancing the stability of the process of entering the idle mode and saving the system resources.

1. A computer readable medium at a network, comprising a computer program stored in a non-transitory medium that, when executed by a digital processor, causes the processor to perform operations comprising:
determining that a Mobile Subscribe Station (MSS) should enter an idle mode; sending a first MSS information (Info) Request message to a relay paging controller (PC), to enable the relay PC to specify an anchor PC identification (ID) for the MSS, to allocate recommended paging parameters, and to send a second MSS Info Request message which is the first MSS Info Request message combined with the recommended paging parameters, to an anchor Data Path Function (DPF)/foreign agent (FA), which will send the second MSS Info Request message to an anchor PC corresponding to the anchor PC ID; receiving an MSS Info Response message, that is generated by and sent from the anchor PC, which has verified through an anchor authenticator that the MSS is allowed to enter the idle mode, according to the second MSS Info Request message; upon receiving the MSS Info Response message, sending, a deregistration command (DREG_CMD) message to the MSS; receiving, a deregistration request (DREG_REQ) message from the MSS indicating that the MSS has entered the idle mode; and releasing, a link of the MSS after receiving the DREG_REQ message to make the anchor PC/a location register (LR) update data in the LR.
