Abstract:
1. A method for aggregating paging messages in a communication network, comprising detecting a downstream push data for a first mobile which is in an idle mode and copying a portion of the downstream push data content to form packet data; generating a paging announcement with vendor specific type-length-value (“TLV”) including the packet data associated with the first mobile; forwarding the paging announcement with vendor specific TLV to a network server configured to performing paging activity sink; examining the packet data and aggregating paging monitoring messages to analyze paging activities; identifying a buffer indicator configured to indicate number of packets buffered for the first mobile; and identifying an out-of-memory (“OOM”) indicator configured to indicate number of packets dropped due to buffering limit, wherein the examining the packet data and aggregating paging monitoring messages to analyze source of paging activities includes identifying cause for paging burst and providing an up-to-date status report regarding idle mode and paging activities.
