Communication system is to help two or the facility of the communication between multiple entity such as communication equipment, network entity and other node more.Communication system can be provided by one or more interference networks.Can provide one or more gateway node to be used for the diverse network of system is interconnected.For example, between access network and other communication network such as core network and/or data network, provide gateway node usually.
In multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication system, transmitter comprises at least two transmitting antennas, and receiving equipment comprises two or multiple receive antenna more.MIMO utilizes multipath transmisstion to increase data throughout and scope.
In the alternative communication system that is called single many outputs of input (SIMO), transmitter utilizes single transmitting antenna to come to receiving equipment emission communication, these receiving equipments utilize two or more multiple receive antenna come received communication.
Mimo system will make up from the signal that a plurality of reception antennas (receiver) receives to express (formulate) communicating by letter from the transmitter emission with the SIMO system.
The two a drawback of SIMO system and mimo system is that the demand to a plurality of reception antennas causes the power consumption and the battery life burden of portable communication device.

When using the secondary paging system, can further reduce power.The secondary paging system utilizes Page Indication Channel (PICH).
Mobile radio station is monitored PICH termly, and when occurring indicating certainly, mobile radio station is known the PCH that monitors reality so, because it may only comprise the message that is addressed to this mobile radio station until now.
Several mobile radio stations can be monitored identical paging occasion.Therefore, any paging sign of the paging acknowledgment that receives of mobile radio station check whether with it self marking matched.If coupling, then communicating by letter with this mobile radio station is target.
Receiving or emission is called as in active state or pattern with the mobile radio station of communicating by letter except that beep-page message of base station.
Wish when mobile radio station is in idle pulley, to reduce the power consumption of a plurality of receivers of mobile radio station.
