At least one of the plurality of paging controllers is configured to assign one or more paging identifications (PG IDs) to a subscriber station within a paging area when the subscriber station requests to enter idle mode, wherein each of the one or more PG IDs is associated with a paging offset, and transmit the one or more PG IDs to a base station in communication with the subscriber station. The subscriber station only monitors the PG ID having a shortest paging offset among the one or more PG IDs.</p> |
