Abstract
A method and device for monitoring a paging message in Machine To Machine (M2M) communication are provided. A M2M device receives a segment of the paging message that includes an extension flag and a M2M extension flag. The extension flag indicates that the M2M device checks the M2M extension flag and the M2M extension flag indicates whether a remaining segment of the paging message exists.
Claims14
A method for monitoring a paging message in Machine To Machine (M2M) communication, the method performed by a M2M device operating in an idle mode comprising a paging listening interval and a paging unavailable interval, the method comprising:
- receiving a segment of the paging message during the paging listening interval, the received segment of the paging message comprising an extension flag and a M2M extension flag, the extension flag indicating that the M2M device checks the M2M extension flag, the M2M extension flag indicating whether a remaining segment of the paging message exists;
- and
- if the M2M extension flag indicates an existence of the remaining segment of the paging message, monitoring at least one subsequent subframe to receive the remaining segment of the paging message while the M2M device remains awake.
A wireless device for Machine To Machine (M2M) communication configured for operating in an idle mode comprising a paging listening interval and a paging unavailable interval, the wireless device comprising:
- a radio frequency unit for receiving and transmitting a radio signal;
- and
- a processor operatively coupled with the radio frequency unit and configured to:
- receive a segment of the paging message during the paging listening interval, the received segment of the paging message comprising an extension flag and a M2M extension flag, the extension flag indicating that the wireless device checks the M2M extension flag, the M2M extension flag indicating whether a remaining segment of the paging message exists;
- and
- if the M2M extension flag indicates an existence of the remaining segment of the paging message, monitor at least one subsequent subframe to receive the remaining segment of the paging message while the wireless device remains awake.
