Abstract

A method is provided for locating an access terminal using paging. The method comprises selecting one of a first and second paging scheme based on a quality of service associated with the access terminal. That is, a resource intensive paging scheme may be employed to locate access terminals that have been assigned a relatively high quality of service, and a slower, less resource intensive, paging scheme may be used when the access terminal has a relatively low quality of service.
