PAGING AREA CONTROL DEVICE AND METHOD, TRANSFER DEVICE, MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM, MOBILE STATION, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM

摘要

In one embodiment of this invention, a transfer node (310) receives downlink data addressed to a mobile station (100). In addition, a paging area control device (300) determines a paging area for the mobile station (100) on the basis of the attributes of the downlink data. A paging device (200) sends a paging signal to the paging area determined by the paging area control device (300), in order to page the mobile station (100). As a result, a technology for contributing to the determination of an appropriate paging area corresponding to downlink traffic is provided.
