Exemplary methods and systems for paging a mobile station are disclosed herein. Exemplary embodiments may help to improve the paging success rate for pages such as data-service pages and/or intersystem pages. An exemplary method involves: (i) before transmission of a page to a mobile station by an access network, the access network determining a page-type of the page; (ii) based at least in part of the page-type, determining a page-transmission power for the page; and (iii) the access network transmitting the page at the selected transmission-power level. To determine the page-type, an access network may determine whether the page is a voice-service page or a data-service page and/or determine whether or not the page is an intersystem page. In an exemplary embodiment, the page transmission for data-service pages is preferably greater than that for voice-service pages. Furthermore, the page-transmission power(s) selected for intersystem pages (for both data-service and/or voice-service) may be greater than that selected for non-intersystem voice-service and/or data-service pages.
