Abstract:
1. A method of transmitting information from a server to a client station in a mobile-based client-server system, the method comprising: determining that the server has information to be transmitted to the client station without the client station initiating the determination, the client station being a separate but connectable component relative to a transceiver, wherein the client station is initially disconnected from the transceiver; transmitting a paging notification message from the server to the transceiver via a page link between the server and the transceiver, in order to provide notification that the server has information to be transmitted to the client station; receiving the paging notification message at the transceiver; and based upon receiving the paging notification message, subsequently connecting the transceiver to the client station to establish a wireless communication link with the server to transmit a message from the client station to the server indicating that the client station is ready to receive the information, and in response, transmitting the information to the client station.
