Abstract
A mechanism for notifying a mobile station of receipt of a packet-switched paging message in a GSM communication system. A base station controller (108) sends the packet-switched paging message to the mobile station (116) along a main dedicated control channel in response to the mobile station being capable of operating in a dual transfer mode and being currently engaged in circuit-switch voice interchange activity, resulting in a simultaneous voice and data transmission in dual transfer mode.
