Abstract
A downlink signaling counter management method for a communication device is adapted to be simultaneously associated with at least two subscriber identities and to simultaneously provide radio receiving capabilities to less than all of the subscriber identities. For each decoding of a paging block for a subscriber identity, it is determined whether the paging block decoding was correct and whether a previous paging block decoding condition is fulfilled. The downlink signaling counter is updated with different values depending on this determination results, and on whether the paging block decoding was based on a maximum number of paging bursts.
