TECHNIQUES TO MANAGE PAGING CYCLES FOR MACHINE-TO-MACHINE DEVICES

摘要

Techniques to control paging cycles for machine-to-machine (M2M) devices are described. An apparatus may comprise a processor circuit, a connection manager component arranged for execution by the processor circuit to establish a wireless connection with a device, and a paging component arranged for execution by the processor circuit to select a paging class for the device from among multiple paging classes, each paging class associated with a different paging cycle and paging class parameter, with at least one of the multiple paging classes comprising a M2M paging class associated with a M2M paging cycle and a M2M paging class parameter. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
establishing a wireless connection with a machine-to-machine (M2M) device; selecting a paging class for the M2M device from among multiple paging classes, each paging class associated with a different paging cycle and paging class parameter, with at least one of the multiple paging classes comprising a M2M paging class associated with a M2M paging cycle and a M2M paging class parameter; and assigning the M2M device to the M2M paging class.
