Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé selon lequel une entité de gestion de mobilité (MME, "mobility management entity") gère la zone de radiomessagerie d'UE dans un système de communication sans fil. Le procédé comprend les étapes consistant à : recevoir, en provenance de multiples stations de base, des informations sur de multiples zones de radiomessagerie (PA, "paging area") prises en charge par les stations de base ; élaborer une liste d'identités de zones de radiomessagerie (PAI, "PA identity") coordonnée sur la base des informations concernant les multiples PA ; et transmettre la liste de PAI coordonnée élaborée aux stations de base.
