Introduction

ASN Paging Controller and Location Registry (PC/LR) supports connection management and mobility across cell sites

and inter-service provider network boundaries by processing subscriber control and bearer data traffic.

Each ASN Gateway can concentrate traffic from many radio base stations. This reduces the required number of devices

under management and minimizes connection set-up latency by decreasing the number of call hand-offs in the network.

Paging and Idle Mode Operation maintains a track and alert for MSs when they are in idle mode to save battery power.

Paging is executed to alert MSs when there is an incoming message. Figure 8 illustrates the paging operation and paging

and idle mode elements in the WiMAX network system.
