Abstract
A method for monitoring paging messages in a mobile station with a subscriber identity card camping on a cell is provided. A paging channel is monitored at every end of predetermined time interval subsequent to the last monitored time. It is detected whether the same identity information is repeatedly broadcasted in the paging channel at different ends of predetermined time interval. A new time interval is determined when detecting that the same identity information is repeatedly broadcasted. The paging channel is monitored at every end of new time interval subsequent to the last monitored time so as to receive subsequent paging messages from the cell, wherein the new time interval is longer than the predetermined time interval.
