Paging system for multi-network terminals

摘要

Terminals which can communicate with more than one network in a time-shared manner must, on being called from such a network, be paged by said network. It can occur, however, that a terminal does not receive a paging message which was destined for it because it was engaged with another network at just the same time. By letting each terminal pass to the network with which it maintains a communication session the points in time at which the terminal can successfully receive and process paging messages, the problem is solved. The terminal thus functions as 'master' and the networks function as 'slave'.
