Method and Device for Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WIMAX) System Paging Terminals in Idle Mode

A recent patent, Publication No. WO/2011/079574, has been published, disclosing a method and device for Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WIMAX) system paging terminals in idle mode. The invention, developed by ZTE Corporation's Renhui Yang, aims to ensure that WIMAX terminals within a base station's coverage area can receive air interface paging messages during designated listening intervals. This innovation prevents waste of air interface resources by eliminating the need to send meaningless messages.

Key Takeaways:

• The patent, Publication No. WO/2011/079574, was filed on June 07, 2010, as Application No. PCT/CN2010/073631.
• The invention targets WIMAX system paging terminals in idle mode, ensuring they receive air interface paging messages in designated listening intervals.
• The method involves acquiring and saving parameters of paging cycles and offsets, which are used to determine if terminals are in a listening interval.
• If terminals are in a listening interval, the base station sends air interface paging messages to them in the current frame.
• The invention also enables the base station to prevent waste of air interface resources by deleting unused paging parameter groups.
• The method and device have been disclosed by ZTE Corporation's Renhui Yang as a solution to improve WIMAX system performance and efficiency.
• The invention has the potential to improve WIMAX system coverage and reduce resource waste.
