MOBILE TELEPHONE, APPARATUS, METHOD AND COMPUTER IMPLEMENTABLE INSTRUCTIONS PRODUCT
First Claim
1. A mobile telephone for communicating with a network entity in a communication system which uses a plurality of system frames wherein each system frame is subdivided in the time domain into a plurality of radio frames, the mobile telephone comprising:
- a receiver that receives at least one signalling message indicative of a communication being initiated for said mobile telephone;
a first determining unit that determines whether a current system frame is a first type of system frame in which communication with said mobile telephone is subject to a restriction or a second type of system frame in which communication with said mobile telephone is not subject to said restriction;
a second determining unit that determines whether or not to listen for a communication from said network entity, in said current system frame, in dependence on whether the current system frame is determined to be a first type of system frame or a second type of system frame; and
a listening unit that listens for a communication from said network entity based on whether or not said first determining unit determines the current system frame to be a first type of system frame.

Abstract
A communication system (100) is disclosed which uses system frames of a first and a second type. In a system frame of the first type communication with a mobile telephone (3) is subject to a restriction and in a system frame of the second type communication with said mobile telephone (3) is not subject to said restriction. It is determined whether or not to communicate with said mobile telephone (3), in a current system frame, in dependence on whether the current system frame is a first type of system frame or a second type of system frame.

58. A mobile telephone for communicating with a network entity in a communication system which uses a plurality of system frames wherein each system frame comprises a plurality of radio frames, the mobile telephone comprising a processor and transceiver, wherein:
-
the processor is configured to i) determine whether a current system frame is a first type of system frame in which communication with said mobile telephone is subject to a restriction or a second type of system frame in which communication with said mobile telephone is not subject to said restriction; and
ii) determine whether or not to listen for a communication from said network entity, in said current system frame, in dependence on whether the current system frame is determined to be a first type of system frame or a second type of system frame; andthe transceiver is configured to listen for a communication from said network entity when it is determined that the current system frame is a first type of system frame.
