METHOD FOR PAGING CONTROL BY PAGING CONTROLLER IN WIRELESS NETWORK

摘要

A paging controller in a wireless network is provided to enable a control station connected with a mobile terminal to tunnel packets to the paging controller when the terminal is transferred to an idle mode, so that the paging controller can conduct control for paging packets. An idle mode terminal manager(510) monitors data packets transceived to a mobile terminal transferred to an idle mode, manages whether a paging trigger for the terminal is generated, and manages a tunnel formed between a control station and a paging controller(500). A paging request manager(540) receives location information of the terminal from a location server(600) to deliver the information to the manager(510), and manages so that the terminal is paged via the control station based on the location information. A packet monitor(520) monitors packets transceived to the terminal through the managed tunnel, and outputs packet information of the packets. A routing controller(550) changes routing setup so that the packets going toward the terminal is tunneled to the control station, and outputs a control signal so that the stored packets are routed through the formed tunnel.
