Abstract

A method is disclosed of a wireless communication device adapted to communicate using a radio access transceiver alternatingly in accordance with a first radio access technology and in accordance with a second radio access technology. The method comprises allocating a number of time periods during communication in accordance with the first radio access technology to reception of a paging signal of the second radio access technology, wherein the number is dynamically variable based on a result of a (block) decoding of at least one previous paging signal of the second radio access technology. The number may be set based on at least one respective previous number of time periods required for successful (block) decoding of the at least one previous paging signal. Furthermore, the number may be set to a maximum value if an immediately previous paging signal was not successfully decoded.
