Adjustment of zone-based paging based on the prevalence of eCSFB devices

摘要

Disclosed herein are methods and systems that may help to determine and/or adjust parameters for zone-based paging over CDMA paging channels, based on the prevalence of devices that are configured for enhanced circuit switch fallback (eCSFB) in one or more paging zones. For example, a switch in a radio access network (RAN) may: (a) determine a respective measure of CSFB-device prevalence in one or more paging zones in the RAN, (b) use the respectively determined measure of CSFB-device prevalence in at least one of the paging zones as a basis to determine one or more parameters for zone-based paging in the at least one of the paging zones, and (c) apply the one or more determined parameters for zone-based paging in the at least one of the paging zones.
