SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ADAPTIVE MESSAGE RETRANSMISSION
First Claim
1. A method for managing message transmission in a wireless communications network, the method comprising:
- transmitting a first signaling message to a mobile device, the first signaling message comprising extended information;
determining whether receipt and processing of the first signaling message has been successfully acknowledged; and
when receipt and processing of the first signaling message has not been successfully acknowledged, transmitting a second signaling message that comprises substantially all information contained within the first signaling message except for the extended information.

Abstract
A method and network controller (200) with a radio network controller (206) that transmits (302) a first signaling message to a communication device (108). The first signaling message includes extended information that some communications devices (108) are expected to be unable to process. The radio network controller (206) further transmits (312) a second signaling message that includes substantially all information that is contained within the first signaling message except for the extended information. The method and network controller (200) also includes a signaling message retransmission controller (208) communicatively coupled to the network controller, that identifies information contained within the extended information and indicates the extended information to the radio network controller (206).

17. A wireless network controller, comprising:
-
a radio network controller adapted to; transmit, to a mobile device, a first alert with information message containing an extended record type-international information record as defined by an IS-2000 protocol definition; and transmit a second alert with information message with information contained within the extended record type-international information record removed; and a signaling message retransmission controller, communicatively coupled to the radio network controller, adapted to identify a rejection of the alert with information message by the mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (18)
