1. A method for operating a Mobile Station (MS) to support an idle mode in a superframe-based wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving a first message comprising a paging group Identifier (ID) during a paging listening interval;
receiving a second message indicating whether to perform one of a location update process and a network entry process;
if the second message indicates that the MS is a paging target, performing one of the location update process and the network entry process based on information in the second message; and
returning to a paging unavailable interval if the second message does not indicate that the MS is a paging target.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for supporting an idle mode of a Mobile Station (MS) in a superframe-based wireless communication system are provided. In a method for operating an MS to support an idle mode in a superframe-based wireless communication system, a paging listening interval is determined based on a Broadcast CHannel (BCH) information Transmit (TX) interval. BCH information including paging information is received during the paging listening interval. The inclusion/non-inclusion of a paging advertisement (MOB_PAG-ADV) message is detected based on the BCH information.
