Mobile communications network system, mobile terminal, and paging method
First Claim
1. A mobile communications network system which performs paging as a paging notification to a mobile terminal through one of various radio systems when a paging request is issued to the mobile terminal under a communications environment in which radio waves of various radio systems having different communication systems are used, comprisingcontrol means having a table, in which identification information of a mobile terminal, application identification information for use in communications of the mobile terminal are associated with location registration area information formed in one radio system, referring to the table when the paging request is issued and selecting a location registration area of a radio system corresponding to an application used in communications of a paging requested mobile terminal, and performing the paging on the selected location registration area;
- first management means in which user information indicating personal preference of a communications condition of user of the mobile terminal;
transmission means for transmitting the user information registered in said first management means to a network system for performing paging on the mobile terminal;
obtaining means for obtaining advertisement information from various radio system; and
selection means for selecting a specific radio system as a radio system for use in paging to the mobile terminal when the obtaining means obtains advertisement information from the specific radio system, whereinthe first management means also manages the user information including the paging frequency of the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal further includes second management means for detecting and managing the terminal status of the mobile terminal, and, when the obtaining means detects the advertisement information from the plurality of radio systems, the selection means selects, as a radio system for use in paging to the mobile terminal, a radio system corresponding to the user information indicating the terminal status of the mobile terminal managed by the second management means and the paging frequency of the mobile terminal managed by the first management means from among the plurality of detected radio systems.

Abstract
A mobile communication network system is provided in which when a radio system is selected from plural types of radio systems as a radio system for use in paging, the optimum radio system for the mobile terminal to be paged can be selected. When it is selected, traffic does not concentrate on a specific radio system, or no excess delay occurs when the mobile terminal starts communications. When the mobile communications network system performs paging as a paging notification to a mobile terminal through any one of various radio systems under a communications environment in which radio waves of various radio systems having different communication systems are used, a radio system is selected from a plurality of radio systems depending on the application used in the communications of the paging requested mobile terminal and a paging operation is performed through the selected radio system when a paging request is issued.
