SELECTION OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION CELLS BASED ON A MOBILITY STATE OF A WIRELESS DEVICE
First Claim
1. A method, in a wireless communication system including stationary and mobile wireless devices, for optimizing paging channel utilization, the method comprising:
- determining a mobility state of a wireless device;
if the mobility state of the wireless device is a mobile state,generating a signal for a page to be transmitted to a set of base stations in a paging area that the wireless device is currently located in; and
if the mobility state of the wireless device is a stationary state,selecting a subset of base stations from the set of base stations within the paging area, andgenerating a signal for a page to be transmitted to the subset of base stations.

Abstract
Disclosed are a wireless communication system, method, and information processing system for optimizing paging channel utilization. The method includes determining a mobility state of the wireless device (104). If the mobility state of the wireless device (104) is a mobile state, a signal is generated for a page to be transmitted to a set of base stations (110) in a paging area (402) that the wireless device (104) is currently located in. If the mobility state of the wireless device (104) is a stationary state, a subset of base stations from the set of base stations (110) within the paging area (402) is selected. A signal is then generated for a page to be transmitted to the subset of base stations.

6. An information processing system, in a wireless communication system including stationary and mobile wireless devices, for optimizing paging channel utilization, the information processing system comprising:
-
a memory; a processor communicatively coupled to the memory; and a paging controller communicatively coupled to the processor and the memory, the paging controller comprising; a mobility state identifier for determining a mobility state of a wireless device; wherein if the mobility state identifier determines that a mobility state of the wireless device is a mobile state, the paging controller generates a signal for a page to be transmitted to a set of base stations in a paging area that the wireless device is currently located in, wherein the set of base stations is selected via a wireless communication cell selector communicatively coupled to the paging controller, and wherein if the mobility state identifier determines that the mobility state of the wireless device is a stationary state, the wireless communication cell selector selects a subset of base stations from the set of base stations within the paging area, and the paging controller generates a signal for a page to be transmitted to the subset of base stations. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)
