Abstract

Access terminals are adapted to facilitate reacquisition procedures for a slotted idle mode. According to one example, an access terminal can operate in a slotted idle mode. The access terminal can then determine one or more optimized parameters for reacquisition procedures. In one example, the access terminal can determine an optimized length of time for reacquisition periods by incrementally reducing the length of time for reacquisition periods until an optimized length of time is obtained. In another example, the access terminal can determine an optimized number of pseudorandom noise (PN) signals and PN positions to be stored during each awake state of the slotted idle mode by incrementally reducing the number of PN signals and PN positions that are stored until an optimized number of stored PN signals and PN positions is obtained. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.
