Abstract

The invention relates to a method for transferring messages in a one-way communication system, particularly a paging system. The transmission of the messages is organized in such a manner that the message is separated from the address. By address it is meant the identity codes of the receivers. Furthermore, the receivers find their message with the aid of a subaddress. The method provides for battery saving by means of the fact that the receivers which are not addressed in the address part do not listen to the message part but go into a battery-saving idle mode.
